Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Thread 4 chicken cubes, 4 peach chunks, and 4 prosciutto strips onto each of 4 soaked bamboo skewers, alternating to create a colorful pattern.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper to make a marinade.
  3. Step 3: Brush the marinade evenly over all the skewers and let them marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
  4. Step 4: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F). Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the peaches are slightly charred on the edges.
  5. Step 5: Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
