Oven-Baked Chicken Kebabs

Serves: 4
Time: 40 minutes (30 minutes marinate time, 10 minutes broil time)

If you don’t have a grill, you don’t have to miss out on awesome chicken kebabs. You can use the oven! The marinade is simple and flavorful. It’s just parsley, lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, and taco seasoning. You can marinate cubed chicken in this for just 30 minutes, though overnight will really make the meat flavorful. Assemble your kebabs with the chicken and some veggies (this recipe uses bell pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes), and bake on a flat cookie sheet for a total of 10 minutes under the broil. One kabab is just 2 points!

Cooking Note: If you’re using wooden stick for the kebabs, remember to
soak in water beforehand, so they don’t overheat or catch fire.
