Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best for skewers. Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces.
  • Marinate the chicken. Marinating the chicken helps to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, or try one of the more flavorful marinades in the recipes linked above.
  • Soak the skewers. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Thread the chicken onto the skewers. Alternate pieces of chicken with vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms. Leave a little space between each piece of chicken and vegetable so that they cook evenly.
  • Cook the skewers over medium heat. Cook the skewers over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Turn the skewers occasionally so that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the skewers with your favorite dipping sauce. Tzatziki sauce, hummus, or a simple vinaigrette are all good options.

Conclusion:

Chicken skewers are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a summer cookout or a quick weeknight dinner. With so many different variations to choose from, you are sure to find a chicken skewer recipe that you will love.
