Ingredients

• 4 (6 oz each) chicken breasts
• 3 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 medium, sliced zucchini
• 2 medium, sliced yellow squash
• 1, sliced red bell pepper
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Place 4 chicken breasts (6 oz each) in the marinade, turning to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes while preheating grill to medium-high (375°F).
2. Step 2: Thread 2 medium sliced zucchini, 2 medium sliced yellow squash, and 1 sliced red bell pepper onto skewers. Brush vegetables with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt.
3. Step 3: Grill marinated chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F and grill marks appear. Meanwhile, grill vegetables for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp, turning once.
4. Step 4: In a small saucepan, combine 2 tbsp honey and 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar. Simmer over medium heat for 2 minutes until syrupy and slightly thickened.
5. Step 5: Brush vegetables with honey glaze just before serving. Place grilled chicken on plates with vegetables, drizzle with remaining glaze, and serve immediately while juicy and aromatic.
