These skewers not only add colour to the grill but also bring loads of flavour! Tender chicken, crispy bacon and fresh vegetables combine into an irresistible mix – seasoned with Mediterranean herbs and a hint of sea salt. Quick to prepare, versatile and simply delicious!
Ingredients for approx. 4 servings:
- 300 g chicken breast fillet
- 200 g bacon (in strips)
- 300 g tomatoes
- 300 g courgette
- 150 g red pepper
- 150 g yellow pepper
- 2 red onions
- 150 g brown mushrooms
- 4 sprigs of thyme
- 4 sprigs of rosemary
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp sea salt (e.g. Fleur de Sel)
Preparation – step by step:
- Preparation is key: Rinse chicken breast under cold water, pat dry and cut into bite-sized cubes (approx. 2 cm). Peel onions and cut into coarse pieces. Clean mushrooms and remove dry stalk ends.
- Freshness brings colour: Wash tomatoes and courgette, cut courgette into slices approx. 1 cm thick. Halve the peppers, remove seeds and white inner membranes, then cut into pieces. Cut bacon into strips and roll into small rolls.
- Prepare the aromas: Wash thyme and rosemary, shake dry and roughly chop the leaves.
- Assemble the skewers: Thread all ingredients alternately onto wooden skewers – feel free to mix creatively, e.g. chicken, courgette, bacon, tomato, pepper, mushroom, onion.
- Season & marinate: Place the skewers on a large platter, drizzle with olive oil. Season with pepper and salt and sprinkle generously with the chopped herbs.
- Onto the grill: Grill the skewers on direct heat on all sides – approx. 8–12 minutes – until the meat is cooked and the bacon crispy.
