Chicken and Vegetable Kebab is made by threading chicken pieces and vegetables onto skewers, then grilling or baking them until the chicken is fully cooked. Cut the ingredients into similarly sized pieces and season or marinate them before cooking.
Bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes are common choices for Chicken and Vegetable Kebab. Cut the vegetables into pieces that cook at a similar pace to the chicken; use larger pieces for vegetables that soften quickly.
For Chicken and Vegetable Kebab, coat the chicken in olive oil or yogurt with lemon, garlic, and seasonings, then refrigerate it while it marinates. Keep raw chicken and its marinade separate from cooked food, and discard marinade that has touched raw chicken.
Chicken and Vegetable Kebab stays juicier when the chicken is cut into evenly sized pieces and not overcooked. Avoid pieces that are too small, turn the skewers during cooking, and check the thickest piece rather than leaving the kebab on the heat unattended.
Yes, Chicken and Vegetable Kebab can be baked in the oven. Arrange the skewers on a baking tray and cook until the chicken is fully done and the vegetables are tender; make sure the skewers fit without touching the oven’s heating element.
Grill Chicken and Vegetable Kebab over moderate heat, turning the skewers so the chicken and vegetables cook on all sides. Very high heat can char the outside before the chicken cooks through, so check the thickest chicken piece before serving.
Chicken and vegetables in Chicken and Vegetable Kebab cook unevenly when their pieces differ greatly in size or when the vegetables soften faster than the meat. Cut pieces evenly, choose vegetables with similar cooking times, or put quicker-cooking vegetables on separate skewers.
Chicken and Vegetable Kebab pairs well with rice, flatbread, salad, or a yogurt-based sauce. For a lighter meal, serve it with a crisp salad; for a more filling plate, add rice or bread and a simple grilled vegetable side.
Yes, you can prepare Chicken and Vegetable Kebab ahead by cutting the vegetables and marinating the chicken separately, then keeping both covered in the refrigerator. Thread them onto skewers shortly before cooking so the vegetables do not sit in the raw chicken marinade.
Store leftover Chicken and Vegetable Kebab in a covered container in the refrigerator soon after cooking, and reheat it until hot throughout. Do not reuse a plate or sauce that held raw chicken for the cooked kebab.

Chicken and Vegetable Kebab brings together pieces of chicken and vegetables threaded onto skewers and grilled. It draws on the Turkish tradition of şiş kebab and is a familiar choice at home, in restaurants and at outdoor barbecues.
The chicken should be tender, with lightly charred edges, while the vegetables add sweetness and juiciness. In Turkey it is commonly served as a main meal with rice, salad or flatbread; elsewhere, it also works well with a simple grain bowl or grilled sides. It is protein-rich, providing 17 g per 100 g. For a lighter plate, pair it with plenty of salad and go easy on added oil.
