Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. These cuts are tender and will cook evenly on the skewers.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Use wooden skewers: Wooden skewers are the best choice for grilling chicken kebabs, as they will not burn or splinter. Be sure to soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using, to prevent them from burning.
- Cook the kebabs over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the chicken and prevent it from drying out. Be sure to turn the kebabs frequently, so that they cook evenly.
- Serve the kebabs with your favorite dipping sauce: A simple yogurt sauce or tzatziki sauce is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the kebabs.
