If you’re looking for a restaurant-quality dish that’s super easy to make, stop scrolling and start salivating! Made by threading marinated meats, veggies, and/or fruits onto metal or wooden skewers and grilling until you get those perfectly placed char lines, kabobs (aka kababs or skewers) are among the simplest and easiest dinners you can make that still look gourmet.  

One potential flaw in the kabob plan is that chicken can get dry when grilled, but we’ve got a flavor-packed fix for that. To make these easy chicken kabobs, we opted for chicken thighs rather than chicken breast, which has a slightly higher fat content that helps seal in moisture. We also marinated the meat in our dreamy Poppyseed Dressing & Marinade for several hours before placing the skewers on the grill.

There’s a lot to love about this dressing, from the nutty-sweet poppy seed flavor tinged with savory notes from onion puree to the fact it’s made with real ingredients like avocado oil and organic apple cider vinegar. Get ready to elevate your dinner game and savor the irresistible deliciousness in every bite!
