Equipment

  • 9 Skewers if using wooden skewers, presoak in water to prevent burning
  • 1 Grill

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Chicken Breast cut into 2" cubes
  • Your favorite veggies use these below or any suggested in the post above
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper seeds removed, cut into 2" pieces
  • 1 Yellow Bell Pepper seeds removed, cut into 2" pieces

Instructions
 

  • If using wooden skewers, soak in water while preparing kabobs to prevent burning.
    Cut up chicken into 2" cubes, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, mix to coat. Season chicken with 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning, set aside.
  • Cut up veggies, cheese, and tortillas. Spray (for less oil) or drizzle veggies with remaining oil. Using your hands, toss the veggies, cheese, and tortillas ensuring the oil is evenly distributed. Season with remaining seasoning.
  • Skewer chicken, veggies, and cheese alternating for colorful kabobs. On a separate skewer, skewer tortilla pieces and any remaining cheese.
  • Preheat grill to medium/low heat. Grill chicken kabobs on direct heat, turning often to prevent burning, until internal chicken temperature is 165℉, about 15-20 minutes. Grill tortilla kabob on indirect heat, turning often. Tortillas are done when toasty on the tips.
  • Enjoy Kabobs with your favorite fajita condiments and a few pieces of grilled tortilla.

Notes

Chicken can be cut and seasoned a day ahead. Veggies can be cut a day ahead but wait to season until ready to grill.
