INGREDIENTS:
-2 LARGE BONELESS CHICKEN BREASTS
-1/2 RED ONION
-1 ZUCCHINI
-1 RED BELL PEPPER
-1 BOX RICE PILAF OF YOUR CHOICE (I USED "NEAR EAST" BRAND)
-RAW SLIVERED ALMONDS
-GREEK DRESSING
-PREMADE TZATZIKI DIP (I USED "CEDAR'S" BRAND)
-OLIVE OIL
-SALT/PEPPER
TIP: Soak your wooden skewers in water for at least and hour before cooking or else they will burn!
DIRECTIONS:
1. Cut chicken and veggies into chunks, about an inch thick for the chicken and half an inch for the veggies. You want them to hold up when cooking.
2. Skewer them in whatever pattern you'd like and coat completely with Greek dressing.
3. Heat a large skillet with a few tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat. Cook skewers in batches (this recipe makes 6 skewers, I did 3 at a time) until chicken is fully cooked and veggies appear soft with a good char on them. About 10-12 minutes, turning periodically so all sides get cooked evenly.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper when they are done and still hot!
4. While chicken is cooking, cook rice according to box directions. Toast almonds in a small skillet over medium low heat until just browned. Mix almonds into rice. Serve with a side of tzatziki.
