Chicken Kabobs with Bacon and Honey Mustard
Honey Mustard and Bacon Kabobs are the perfect savory and sweet combo. The chicken is marinaded in a homemade, simple, honey mustard sauce and then grilled on a Kabob with bacon weaving through it. These kabobs make the perfect summertime meal on the grill.
Servings: 6 -8 kabobs
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mustard
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 large chicken breasts cut into 1 1/2 inch chunks
- 1 lb bacon cut into 1-1 1/2 inch pieces
Instructions
- Stir together the honey, mustard and garlic powder.
- Pour half of the honey mustard into a large zip top bag. Reserve the other half in the fridge for later.
- Place chicken chunks into the baggie with the honey mustard. Coat all pieces of chicken with honey mustard and let marinade for at least 1 hour. The longer the better. This step may be omitted if you are pressed for time.
- Microwave the bacon for 2-5 minutes depending on how crispy you like it. Let it cool slightly and then proceed with the instructions.
- Stack the chicken and bacon, alternating in a pattern, onto a stainless steel skewer. Make sure to leave enough room around each item to insure equal and even cooking.
- Grill until the internal temperature reaches 165°. I like to brush with some of the reserved honey mustard about 2 or 3 minutes before taking them off of the grill. Brush once more right after taking them off of the grill.
- Cover with foil and let the kabobs 'rest' for 5 minutes before serving.
