Super Bowl Sunday is almost here, and that means it’s time to start thinking about food! If you’re looking for a fun and easy appetizer that everyone will love, look no further than kickoff kebabs. These simple skewers are packed with flavor and perfect for feeding a crowd.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup red onion, diced
- 1/4 cup green bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 wooden skewers
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken, ground beef, onion, bell peppers, cilantro, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Thread the chicken and beef mixture onto the skewers, alternating between the two meats.
- Grill the kebabs for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the beef is browned.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, such as BBQ sauce, ranch dressing, or tzatziki sauce.
Tips:
- For a spicier kebab, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
- If you don’t have a grill, you can bake the kebabs in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the beef is browned.
- Serve the kebabs with a variety of vegetables, such as baby carrots, celery sticks, and cucumber slices.
- Let the kebabs cool slightly before serving, so they are easier to handle.
I hope you enjoy these Kickoff Kebabs! They are a surefire way to score a touchdown with your guests on Super Bowl Sunday.
