Green onion adds freshness and is often cheaper.

Squeeze lime juice into a bowl.

Chop fresh garlic and add it to the bowl.

Add chopped cilantro to the bowl.

Mix the lime juice, garlic, cilantro, and Hellmann's Light Mayonnaise together until combined.

Set aside half of the cilantro mixture to use later as a dipping sauce.

Soak skewers in water for 15 minutes.

Take a skewer and start with a piece of bell pepper.

Add pieces of chicken to the skewer, followed by more bell pepper, leaving space for air to circulate.

Brush the mayonnaise mixture generously over the skewers.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit if not grilling.

Place skewers in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, and brush with the mayonnaise mixture again if desired.
