1/3 red onion cut into 2” cubes
10 cherry tomatoes
1 bell pepper cut into 2” cubes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
ground black pepper to taste

IN a food processor combine tahini, lime juice, garlic, water and 1/2 tsp of salt. Blend until the mixture is homogenous.
ADD chopped parsley and blend just enough to mix the parsley throughout.
NOTE: This sauce will get very firm if chilled so it is easier to use if made right before it is needed or left out room temperature for a bit.

PREHEAT grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
ARRANGE vegetables alternately on skewers and set the leftover vegetable marinade on the side.
IN a mixing bowl, combine all of the vegetables and marinate with the olive oil, and 2 tsp salt. Add pepper to taste.
COOK skewers on the preheated grill until vegetables are tender, turning and occasionally basting vegetables with remaining olive oil mixture, for 10 to 15 minutes.
REMOVE vegetables from skewers and divide evenly onto three plates.

HEAT sauté pan over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.
CUT pouch and place chicken breasts in pan (leave marinade in pouch for later use).
