  cross-contamination.

  (see post notes above).
• 7 Grill both your chicken and veggie skewers over indirect heat to start. About
  5-6 minutes with the lid closed. Flip when the chicken easily comes off the
  grates and repeat.

  with the lid up to finish the cooking process and get some nice color/ char.

  but not mushy.
