Yummy Kabob Marinade

June 18, 2015

Chicken Kabob Appys at the Lavery’s Bon Voyage Happy Hour for L’Hermione | By Jennifer | Old Town Post

Jean and Jim “Cuz” Lavery had a bon voyage party for the tall ship, Hermione, at the Old Dominion Boat Club. The tiki bar was full of spirits, and live music featuring Rockin’ Rodger set the tone for everyone. It was time to bid adieu to the magnificent tall ship at midnight.

Jean asked everyone to bring an appetizer. Miles and I chose to bring kabobs in reverse. It’s been so hot outside it’s more comfortable to prepare everything in the kitchen than it is to grill outside. And with this fantastic marinade, you’re not skimping on flavor, preparing things in the oven.

Your Harris Teeter shopping list for this recipe 😉 

  • 2 lemons -> produce section
  • 1 onion  -> produce section
  • 3 – 4 bell peppers (red and green give the most color)  -> produce section
  • two 4oz packages of button mushrooms  -> produce section
  • 1.25-1.5 lb. thin sliced chicken breasts -> meat section
  • dijon mustard -> aisle 1
  • vegetable oil -> aisle 4
  • Worcestershire sauce -> aisle 1
  • soy sauce -> aisle 2
  • minced garlic -> produce section
  • 2 zip lock baggies (gallon size) -> aisle 8
  • appetizer size skewers -> aisle 4

Recipe 

Mix the following:

  • juice of 2 lemons
  • 3/4 cup veggie oil
  • 3/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 dijon mustard 1/3
  • 3 garlic cloves

Chop the following into kabob size pieces:

  • 1 onion
  • 3-4 bell peppers (red and green give the most color)

Place the chopped onion and green peppers into a zip lock baggie along with the two packages of button mushrooms. Pour about 3/4 of the marinade over the veggies. Place chicken breasts in the other baggie (this helps if you end up making some vegan kabobs). Pour the remainder of the marinade over the chicken.  Make sure each baggie is closed and massage the marinade into the chicken and veggies. Place in fridge and allow chicken and veggies to marinade for about 5 hours. (I learned this note the hard way once: don’t marinate overnight, or for too long, as the acid in the marinade will change the texture of the chicken.)

When you’re ready, cook your kebabs in the oven or on the grill. Make sure the chicken reaches 165˚F (74˚C). Enjoy!

Pip Pip Cheerio!

Did ya know “pip pip” mimics the double honk on an early 20th century motorcar? It's an upperclass British colloquialism for farewell. 🎩 I learned that because we're Downton Abbey superfans!
This bit never gets old! This bit never gets old!
Guess what?!! My Zebra article is out! I’m so ex Guess what?!! My Zebra article is out! I’m so excited 😆. 

Beyond Camelot: The Life and Legacy of Jackie O starts on page 18! You can pick up print copies around town!!!

Monte Durham donated his entire Jackie collection to The First Ladies Library and we were there for the opening — all in Burberry! 

Links in bio for the article, the print edition, and some more Jackie stories.

This place is on Regent Street where the elegance of Mayfair merges with energy of Soho — and it is one great fashion show! When we’re in London we like to go here have drinks, an appetizer, and people watch. 😍

It popped up on my FB memories today. 🥰

Have ya been? Will you go? Let us know.

well done @milesdejiles 😘
Went to Barca last night. The staff couldn’t hav Went to Barca last night. The staff couldn’t have been nicer! We had a great time. 

It’s a small plate concept. We shared everything. But some favorites emerged. Miles really liked the BEEF TENDERLOIN with tomatoes, red wine, shallots, garlic, & jalapeños. And by far my fav was the JAMÓN SERRANO CROQUETAS with manchego & aleppo-orange honey. On my list to try next time are the STUFFED DATES with blue cheese, jamón serrano, & olive oil — they sound delish! 

It’s packed most of the time. But Tuesday around 4 o’clock we were seated straight away. It was pretty full by the time we left. We were conscious not to linger. But they never made us feel rushed. And they were super welcoming to the furry princess! 

Have ya been? Will ya go? Let us know! And follow us for more in Old Town.🍍⚓️💛

Think I’ll do better playing photographer for the blessing of the fleet tomorrow? Stay tuned!

It’s got a really small footprint without sacrificing space for the furry princess. And it was by for the easiest one to put together — it came folded like an umbrella and we just popped on wheels. 

Link to it on our blog. And you can link to that in our bio.

We had a leisurely lunch at Chart House, toasting Miles! Sipped a nice pale pink rosé in the shade and people watched in between courses. Limited menu compared to the olden days. But it was tasty. 

I love you so much @milesdejiles — thanks for sharing your day with us! 😘
