Citrus Herb Chicken and Vegetable Kabobs

Marinade:
1/2 cup Orange juice
2 T dry Sherry
1 Green onion, chopped
1/8 t Ginger, minced
1/4c Light Soy Sauce
1 T Olive Oil
1t Garlic, minced
Combine above ingredients, mix well.
Makes 1 cup.
Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast halves,
cut into 1-1/2 inch cubes
4 cups assorted fresh vegetable pieces,
such as bell pepper, onion, corn, zucchini and mushrooms
Directions:
Place chicken cubes in large resealable plastic bag or glass dish. Add marinade; turn to coat well. Refrigerate 15 minutes or longer for extra flavor. Remove chicken from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Alternately thread chicken cubes and vegetable pieces onto skewers. Grill kabobs over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through, turning occasionally.
Tip: If using wooden skewers, soak thoroughly in water for at least 30 minutes before threading with chicken and vegetables. This prevents them from burning when on the grill.
