Instructions
- Remove excess fat, skin, and bone from your chicken thighs. Cut the chicken into small, but uniform pieces.
- Dice the raw garlic cloves.
- Zest and juice your lemon, and add to the diced garlic and remaining dry ingredients, and olive oil. Mix well and then add your chicken. I like to store the marinading chicken in a zip-top bag in the refrigerator. I recommend you allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30-45 minutes.
- When you’re ready to cook the chicken, place it on skewers keeping pieces of the same size together.
- I used a Lodge Sportsmall grill to cook my chicken skewers. It is a small cast iron grill that is portable and great for grilling. You can find the grill here. I used Jealous Devil Onyx Binchotan Charcoal because a relatively small amount burns very hot and clean.
- Cook the skewers, turning regularly until it is brown on all sides and reaches an internal temperature of 165o degrees.
- Once the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165o, remove it from the grill and let rest for 5-7 minutes before serving.
- You can serve still on the skewer, or remove it from the skewer before serving.
