1

Prep the vegetables by cutting yellow and green zucchinis into larger chunks, cutting red bell pepper into pieces, and halving larger mushrooms while leaving smaller ones whole.

2

Slice up a couple of shallots or use red onions instead.

3

Combine all the prepared veggies in a large mixing bowl.

4

Cut 1.5 pounds of chicken thighs into larger chunks for even cooking and juiciness.

5

Add the chicken to the bowl with the veggies.

6

Season the mixture with 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 cup of red wine, about 1 tablespoon of salt, a generous amount of black pepper, and 1/2 cup of mayonnaise.

7

Add 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cumin, along with 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped dill.

8

Use your hands or spatulas to combine everything until the chicken and veggies are well coated with the seasonings.

9

If using bamboo skewers, soak them ahead of time to prevent burning on the grill.

10

Skewer the veggies and chicken, alternating between them.

11

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

12

Grill the kebabs for about 5 to 6 minutes per side, turning every couple of minutes for even cooking.

13

Use a fork to slide off the meat and veggies onto a plate once cooked.
