Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken into 16 equal-sized cubes, pat dry, and marinate with the marinade ingredients for 30 minutes.
  2. Thread four pieces of chicken onto a metal or bamboo skewer. Repeat until you have four skewers. Set aside.
  3. Fire up your outdoor grill (or indoor grill) and cook the chicken kebabs until fully cooked. While grilling, brush the chicken with olive oil. Serve hot.

Notes

  • If you use bamboo skewers, soak them in cold water overnight so they don't get burned during the grilling process.
