Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup fresh orange juice
2 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp pomegranate molasses
2 tsp grated orange rind
2 tsp minced fresh rosemary
1 tsp salt
1 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp ground red pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 lbs chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
2 large oranges
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
cooking spray
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint

Directions:

Combine 1/2 cup Pomegranate-Orange Dressing and chicken in a large zip-top plastic bag. Seal and marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes, turning bag occasionally.
Prepare grill to medium-high heat.
Cut each orange into 8 wedges; cut each wedge crosswise into 3 pieces.
Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Thread chicken and orange pieces alternately onto each of 16 (10-inch) skewers. Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Place kebabs on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is done, basting occasionally with remaining 1/2 cup Pomegranate-Orange Dressing. Place kebabs on a platter; sprinkle with mint.
Pomegranate-Orange Dressing (makes 1 1/2 cups) serving size 1 tablespoon.
1 cup fresh orange juice.
2 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar.
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses.
2 teaspoons grated orange rind.
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary.
1 teaspoon salt.
1 teaspoon brown sugar.
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper.
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper.
4 garlic cloves, minced.
1/4 cup extravirgin olive oil.
Combine all ingredients except oil, stirring with a whisk. Gradually add oil, stirring constantly with a whisk until well combined.
Note: Refrigerate dressing in an airtight container for up to five days; stir well before using.
