Here's one of my recipes I use for chicken skewers. Always a big hit, give it a try.
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts - 2.5 lbs usually feeds about 5 people if you also have other things like steaks as well. Makes around 15 skewers with 2-3 pieces of chicken on each.
Skewer veggies - I like red/yellow/green peppers, mushrooms, eggplant, zucchinni, onions
- Cut breasts into skewer sized pieces
- 2 tbsp paprika
- 2 tbsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp cayenne
- 6 cloves of garlic, lightly smashed and chopped
- 6 juicy limes < this is key!!
- olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- mix ingredients together and marinate chicken in baggie in fridge before grilling. I've marinated for as little as 1 hour and it's still great.
The key here is the lime as it gives a nice citrus punch to the chicken that goes nicely with the heat of the paprika and cayenne. I also lightly season my skewer veggies too with olive oil, salt and pepper.
