Creating Pesto Chicken Skewers is a simple process when you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Cut the Chicken: Dice the boneless chicken breasts into equal-sized cubes, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches.
3. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the pesto sauce and olive oil. You can add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and mix until they are well-coated in the pesto marinade.
5. Marinate: Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. For optimal flavor, marinate for up to 1 hour (or overnight).
6. Prepare the Vegetables (Optional): If you’re adding vegetables, chop them into bite-sized pieces.
7. Assemble the Skewers: Alternately thread the marinated chicken cubes and vegetables onto the skewers.
8. Preheat the Grill: Set your grill to medium-high heat.
9. Grill the Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
10. Check Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
11. Remove from Grill: Carefully take the skewers off the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
