Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb good quality chicken breast, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (They're easier to cube if you cut them while still a little frozen)
1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed, is what the recipe i have calls for, but I used 1 tablespoon of minced garlic fr
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon allspice
2 tablespoons best quality olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice, but I used Lime juice

Steps:

  • In non-reactive container (glass, good ceramic or stainless steel) combine the cubed chicken, garlic, salt, cinnamon, black pepper, allspice, oil and lemon juice, mix well, cover (you can use saran wrap).
  • *Note* You should marinate the chicken for several hours in the refrigerator to get the best taste out of the chicken.
  • Thirty minutes before grilling remove from refrigerator, allowing it to reach room temperature.
  • Thread onto skewers *note*.
  • If using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in cold water for at least 20 minutes prior to using.
  • Grill over medium charcoal fire, basting and turning several times, until delicately browned.
  • The recipe also says you can also grill in the oven, but if you've got a charcoal grill, it works much nicer.
  • But if you dont have a charcoal grill; pre-heat the grill. Place chicken on skewers over an oven sheet and cook until browned (6-8 minutes), turning skewers and basting occasionally with the marinade to keep moist.
  • I serve this with baked pita,hummus, Kibbee, and a nice green salad with feta cheese dressing.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The marinade made the chicken really flavorful.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The chicken was cooked well, but the marinade was a bit bland.

This recipe was too complicated. I ended up burning the chicken.
