Ingredients:

350g chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
½ cup Elanthos Extra Virgin Olive Oil
¼ cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp dried basil
3 tbsp Vrionis Kalamata Balsamic Glaze
Cherry tomatoes
Fresh basil leaves
Fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into cubes

Preparation:

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine Elanthos Extra Virgin Olive Oil, brown sugar, chopped garlic, sea salt, black pepper, dried thyme, dried basil, and Vrionis Kalamata Balsamic Glaze. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Skewer Assembly: Assemble your skewers by threading the marinated chicken pieces, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, and mozzarella cheese cubes onto skewers in an alternating pattern.
Brush with Glaze: Place the assembled skewers on the lined baking pan. Brush each skewer generously with the prepared olive oil and balsamic glaze mixture, ensuring all sides are coated evenly.
Bake to Perfection: Transfer the baking pan to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the skewers from the oven and let them cool slightly. Arrange them on a serving platter and garnish with additional fresh basil leaves if desired. These Caprese Skewers are best enjoyed warm and are guaranteed to be a hit at any gathering!
