Sept Theme: cooking with FRUIT (heidi)

















PLUMS

Chicken, Red Onion and Plum Kabobs

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup apricot jam
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs, quartered
  • 8 plums (about 2 pounds), quartered lengthwise
  • 1 red onion, quartered lengthwise and halved crosswise











DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, jam, vinegar and soy sauce. Add the chicken and toss to coat; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

  2. Transfer the marinated chicken to a bowl. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan, boil for 2 minutes, then let cool.

  3. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium. Thread the chicken, plums and onion onto 8 skewers. Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally and basting frequently with the marinade during the first 6 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
