Spicy Lemon Chicken Kabobs
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + marinating Grill: 10 min.
YIELD: 6 servings.
When I see Meyer lemons in the store, it must be spring. I like using them for these easy chicken kabobs, but regular grilled lemons still add the signature smoky tang. —Terri Crandall, Gardnerville, Nevada
