Fast and easy with a simple marinade you can make ahead of time. Oven Grill or BBQ. Serve with Couscous, Greek Salad and Tzatziki. Parboiling the onions and potatoes makes everything cook evenly.
Ingredients
Marinade
1/4 cup Olive Oil
juice of 1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon Greek Seasoning (or make your own with Oregano, Lemon Zest, Sea Salt, Pepper, Marjoram)
1 sprig Fresh Rosemary, pulled off the stalk
2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
Preparation
2 Peppers, Red, Green or Yellow, chunked
1 large Red Onions, peeled and halved
12 small Potatoes
2 large Zucchini, sliced 1/2 thick on the diagonal
12 Muchrooms (optional)
4 organic Chicken Breasts, sliced into strips (optional)
To Serve
1 1/2 c Couscous
3 c Vegetable Broth
Instructions
Bring Broth to a boil in a large lidded sauce pan
Add the Couscous, stir and turn off the heat and cover
Bring another pan of water to the boil and then add the potatoes and onions, then simmer
Whisk the Marinade ingredients together and if you are making Veggie and Chicken Kebabs, double the Marinade ingredients and divide between to large plastic bags
Add the Peppers, Zucchini and Mushrooms to one bag and the Chicken to the other bag
Remove the Onion with a slotted spoon after 5 minutes, add to the Veggie Marinade
Boil the potatoes an additional 3-5 minutes, you want them a bit firm so they don't fall off the skewers
Drain the Potatoes and add to the Veggie Marinade
Let marinate as long as you have time for. Refrigerate if you are marinating more than an hour
Thread the Veggies onto skewers and the Chicken onto separate skewers or do what I do and toss all the Veggies onto a foil lined cookie sheet and pop under the broiler, then do the same with the Chicken
Heat the grill or oven broiler. When hot, grill the Veggie Kebabs 5-7 minutes, then turn and grill until nicely browned
Grill the Chicken the same amount of time checking to make sure it is no longer pink inside
Fluff the Couscous and serve the Kebabs on top
