Before hopping over to pumpkin spice lattes and all things Autumn, let's revel in the last little bit of warm weather while we can. Today, we are enjoying the outside grill on this sunny day as we make Lemon, Honey, & Thyme Chicken Kabobs that are easy, nutritious, and delicious!

Can I make these Lemon, Honey, & Thyme Chicken Kabobs in the oven?

Yes! Find the broiler / oven instructions below :)

Oven instructions:

‍Preheat the broiler (500F - 550F). Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Place the skewers in a single layer on the sheet pan. Broil for 5 minutes, then flip the skewers and broil on the other side for 5 more minutes (or until chicken is cooked completely).

Fun fact: More often than not, you'll find me broiling these chicken kabobs in the oven rather than on the grill since they make a great lunch meal when prepped ahead of time. Since my work desk is located near the kitchen, I'll just pop them in the oven and wait for the chime to tell me they're done while I get other work done! A win, win to me!

How do I know when the chicken is done?

If you follow the instructions closely, then you shouldn't have a problem with the chicken cooking through completely. However, the true measure is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of cooked chicken should read at least 165F.

I truly hope you all enjoy this end-of-summer grilling recipe (that can also be made in the oven) and enjoy the last little bit of warm weather! ’till next time… xxL
