Balsamic Chicken and Zucchini Skewers

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Balsamic chicken and zucchini skewers are a quick and easy grilled dinner. They’re a healthy, 21 Day Fix that is perfect for using up some of your garden zucchini!

We just planted our summer veggie garden; it’s a Mother’s Day tradition that we started our first spring in our current home.  It’s such a great gift, and the time spent with my daughter is the best!

Little girl watering zucchini plants in the garden.

And now the waiting begins!

There is a time in July and August where I’m pulling ingredients from the garden each and every day for our meals.  My favorite crop is definitely zucchini (yippee for zucchini pizzas), and I make these easy and delicious balsamic chicken and zucchini skewers for weekend dinners throughout the summer.

 

Balsamic marinated chicken, zucchini, and red onion are alternated on skewers and grilled, then topped with feta.

You can use any combination of vegetables that you want, as this balsamic marinade is totally versatile and downright yummy on anything!

    These were delicious! However, the advertising on your blog or the way you format it makes it impossible to print out the recipe without half a page of ads. Again, thank you so much for a tasty, healthy recipe but I hope you can improve this design flaw for your readers!

    Oh my goodness, this is delicious! The feta cheese is the perfect thing to balance out the slightly sweet marinade. I can’t wait to have the leftovers for lunch tomorrow.
