Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 sprig fresh tarragon
1 red chili pepper, deseeded and roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon tomato paste
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken thighs into chunks - about 1.5in and then set aside.
  • Make the marinade. Strip the leaves from the tarragon and place them in a mortar with the roughly chopped chili. Add the garlic, a generous pinch of salt, a grinding of pepper and pound everything to a paste with a pestle (alternatively use a food processor).
  • Stir in 1 teaspoon of smoked pimenton (this adds a lovely smoky flavour to the marinade). Add the tomato paste, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Stir thoroughly and pour over the chicken. Leave the chicken to marinate until ready to cook.
  • Preheat the grill. Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken skewers were a complete disaster. They were dry, tough, and flavorless.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the chicken skewers didn't turn out as flavorful as I expected.

The chicken was a little dry, but the flavor was still good. I'll try cooking them for less time next time.

I substituted Greek yogurt for the mayonnaise in the marinade, and they turned out great! Definitely recommend this recipe.
