Which Kabobs should you serve?

Many times I call Kabobs another name, Skewers. Simply because they are on a skewer stick just like Kabobs so you will see that used interchangeably in these recipes.

Decide on the method you plan to use to cook the kabobs whether that is in the air fryer or grill and then the type of meat.

What should you serve with Kabobs?

The first thing you need to do after deciding which type of kabobs you are making is decide if you want hot or cold sides.

I find it’s best to use a little bit of both. We almost always serve kabobs with a side of Ninja Foodi Rice, then I like to add another vegetable such as grilled mushrooms or a cold salad like cucumber salad.

Do you want to smoke the sides alongside your chicken? Or grill the sides? These are all things to consider when choosing sides. If you are grilling the kabobs, it’s very easy to add baked potatoes right onto the smoker or pellet grill too.

What about gluten-free side dishes?

Almost all of these sides are going to be gluten-free either naturally gluten-free or the recipe will indicate what changes to make.

I only eat gluten-free, so it’s the only way that I cook. That makes these really easy to adapt to meet your own dietary needs or those of your guests!
