Ingredients
combine fruit juice & zest with cumin, chili powder, and 2 TBSP olive oil. Add chicken and stir well to cover. Put in refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour.
If using wooden skewers, about 20-25 minutes before serving, soak in water for at least 20 minutes (keeps them from burning). Mix together the remaining 2 TBS olive oil with the vinegar. Brush squash & onions with oil & vinegar mixture.
Preheat grill to medium high
Thread skewers with veggies and chicken. Sprinkle with black pepper.
Cook kebabs 7-10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through, turning often.
While kebabs are cooking, toss salad greens with remaining oil & vinegar and split among 4 plates. Put two cooked kebabs on each plate and serve immediately.
