MOROCCAN-SPICED CHICKEN SKEWERS

Moroccan-Spiced Chicken Skewers image

Amazing chicken skewers my mom used to make when I was younger. These are great fresh of the grill and even better reheated. I love to meal prep this and take with me to work.

Number Of Ingredients 22

Ingredients

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup chopped fresh mint leaves
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
2 cups whole-milk Greek yogurt
½ cup fresh lemon juice
¼ cup finely chopped mint leaves
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 green bell peppers, cut into cubes
1 small red onion, cut into 8 wedges
bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Steps:

Whisk olive oil, 1/4 cup mint, cilantro, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, honey, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 cloves garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, and cayenne in a large bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade in a separate bowl.
Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Press air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade. Place in a bowl and refrigerate for 5 hours.
Whisk yogurt, 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup mint, 2 cloves garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl to make sauce. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
Toss green bell peppers and red onion in the reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Remove chicken from the bag and discard all marinade. Thread chicken, peppers, and onion alternately onto skewers.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Arrange skewers on the grill. Close lid and cook, turning once or twice, until chicken is firm to the touch, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from grill and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with cold sauce.

ULTIMATE CHICKEN SKEWERS RECIPE - VEENA AZMANOV

May 18, 2021 Step-by-step: Grilled chicken skewers. Prep chicken – Clean, wash, and cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Pat dry on a paper towel to …
From veenaazmanov.com

Prep Chicken - Clean, wash, and cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Pat dry on a paper towel to remove excess moisture.Pro tip - Cut the chicken into about 1-inch pieces as too large will keep the chicken raw in the middle. Also, make sure the chicken is dry so the marinade will stick to it.
Prep Veggies - Cut vegetables also into small pieces similar to the chicken. Cut each bell pepper in a quarter then each quarter into 4 pieces after taking off the stalk and seeds. Do the same with the onions and tomatoes if using large tomato. Pro tip - Prepare the veggies no more than 4 hours before cooking so they stay fresh. I like to add the chicken marinade into my veggies as well so they pick up flavor from the chicken.
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes at least.Pro tip - Soaking the skewers in water will prevent them from burning on the grill so do not skip this step.
Marinade - Place all marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the chicken pieces. Cover and set aside to marinate for an hour on the counter or up to 12 hours in the fridge. Pro tip - If you marinate for longer in the fridge, make sure to take the chicken out an hour before you plan to cook it.
