Nov, 2007: Excellent! I served these with steamed rice, so left out the corn so it could all be eaten mixed with the rice. (May add mushrooms next time thanks to one of the other reviewers) Marinated over night. The sauce is great with the rice, so will make a little more next time. Thanks very much Rita.<br/>Jan 2011 Update: Still making your kebabs Rita! I recently had them cold (the following day) and added avocado to the sauce to form a thicker paste for spreading across the kebabs. The trick was to put the leftover sauce in a blender and gradually add avocado until the desired thickness had been achieved. Went down very well at the Ashes Test Match at the SCG!!!

We made this for a barbecue las weekend. It was very easy and tasty. We varied the vegies for what we had on hand. Made for Photo Tag.

My husband says this is the best chicken he has ever tasted. I make the recipe as stated, but I use tomatoes instead of the zucchini and onion instead of the corn, and we also use some button mushrooms. He tenderizes the meat with a meat mallet before placing in the marinade. Thanks Rita for a delicious recipe!

Absolutely delicious! Simple, refreshing, and perfect for a summertime meal. The only problem I had was with putting the corn on my wooden skewers. If I had metal skewers, I don't think there would have been a problem. Regardless, I served the corn on the side and it turned out great.
