Kabobs might not be one of the traditional Mexican foods but, if you enjoy both Mexican food recipes and grilling, why not make some tasty kabobs? It is easy to add a south of the border flavor to kabob recipes and you can team chicken and vegetables to make a colorful and appetizing dish. This would make a great Cinco de Mayo food, especially if you plan to celebrate outdoors.
You can serve other authentic Mexican food recipes on the side. Salsa, guacamole, pinto beans, and sour cream make nice side dishes. Tortilla chips, rice or corn chips are other possibilities. If you are catering for a mixed crowd, you might also want to make some classic grill dishes such as burgers, chicken wings, and steak. Most people will want to sample your Latin kabobs but others might prefer the plainer items.

Food Safety
If you only use one knife when preparing the ingredients for this chicken kabobs recipe, make sure you clean it well after cutting the chicken, because raw poultry can contain parasites.
Alternatively, use one knife for the poultry and one for the vegetables. The same applies to the cutting board. Also, make sure the chicken is fully cooked before you serve the kabobs. That means it must be white all the way through with no trace of pink remaining.
What You Need:
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 1 onion 10 cherry tomatoes 1 zucchini 1 red bell pepper 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro 1 teaspoon ground cumin 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 lime Salt and black pepper
How To Make Them:
Cut the chicken breasts into one inch cubes. Cut the bell pepper, onion, and zucchini into half inch wedges. Squeeze the juice from the lime in to a mixing bowl. Add the cilantro, cumin, and olive oil and mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Stir the chicken into the mixture in the bowl, ensuring it is covered all over. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for two hours. If you are in a rush, one hour is better than nothing but the longer you leave the poultry to marinate, the better the flavor will be. Preheat the grill until it is very hot.
Thread the poultry on to eight metal skewers with the vegetables, alternating the ingredients along the skewer. If you want to use wooden skewers, you will need to soak them in water for half an hour before you assemble the kabobs, else they might catch fire on the grill.
Brush olive oil over the grill plate and arrange the kabobs on there. Cook them for about ten minutes or until the poultry is cooked through. You will need to turn them a couple of times during the cooking, the ensure they cook evenly. Serve them hot, with your favorite side dishes and accompaniments and wait for everyone to compliment you on your wonderful Mexican food.
