Kraft Kitchen Tips!
Soak Wooden Skewers Before Using for Grilled Kabobs
If using wooden skewers, soak skewers in water for 30 min. before using to assemble kabobs to prevent the skewers from burning as the kabobs cook.
Special Extra
Garnish with additional chopped fresh mint before serving.
Important Note
If the uncooked chicken logs are too soft to firmly stick to the skewers, refrigerate them 30 min. before cooking as directed.
