Instructions

1
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
2
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken cubes, red bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3
Thread the chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. You should get about 4 skewers.
4
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the hot grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
5
While the skewers are cooking, prepare the peanut dip: In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey (or maple syrup), grated ginger, minced garlic, and warm water until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach your desired consistency.
6
Serve the grilled chicken and veggie skewers immediately with the peanut dipping sauce on the side.
