- Cut chicken into 1-inch dice. In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, vinegar, thyme, salt, pepper, and zest. Slowly whisk in olive oil to combine.
- Thread chicken, zucchini rounds, mushrooms, and peach slices onto skewers, alternating ingredients. Be sure to leave enough space at bottom of skewer to hold and turn.
- Place skewers in a single layer on a sheet pan or baking dish and pour marinade over, turning skewers to distribute marinade. Cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate. Marinate, turning skewers occasionally, for at least 30 minutes or overnight.

I tried this and it was delicious – though I think it could have used more time to marinate. I marinated it for 30 mins before cooking. the leftover was more tasty the next day for lunch after the flavors sunk in more. I had some left over fruit and vegetables that I grilled in a grill pan on the bbq and they were great, also.
I think i would use zucchini rather than mushrooms in this. cant imagine peaches & mushrooms going well together
This recipe looks absolutely “heaven”!
