Marinated Chicken Spiedies
Report
This isn't just any chicken sandwich, it's the marinated Chicken Spiedies! Picture this: succulent chicken, soaked in a zesty, herby marinade, and grilled to smoky perfection. Tucked into a buttery toasted Italian roll and drizzled with a homemade garlic sauce that's absolutely to die for. Trust me, this is a flavor party you don't want to miss!

Ingredients
- 3 large chicken breasts cut into cubes
- 4 Italian rolls
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
Marinade Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
- ¼ cup fresh parsley chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
Garlic sauce
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- ⅓ cup lemon juice
- 6 cloves garlic peeled
- 1 egg white*
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Garlic Sauce
- Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, it should take 1 to 2 minutes. This recipe will make about 1½ cups of sauce, refrigerate leftover sauce.
Spiedies
- In a small bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients. Place the chicken in a ziploc bag and pour the marinade over the chicken, seal the bag, toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours up to overnight.
- When ready to cook turn on your grill to medium high heat. Clean and oil the grill.
- Cut the rolls lengthwise and brush the inside of the roll generously with butter.
- Thread the chicken on 4 skewers, making sure to divide the meat equally among the skewers.
- Grill the chicken on all sides, about 3 minutes per side, until chicken is cooked and starts to brown. Place the rolls on the grill and let them grill for about 2 minutes or until the bread starts to brown.
- In each roll lay a grilled skewer inside. Gripping the roll at the bottom, carefully slide skewer off, leaving meat in the bread. Drizzle generously with the garlic sauce.
Notes
- Egg White: You can omit the egg white in the recipe. It's primarily used as an emulsifier to help the oil and lemon juice blend together more smoothly, creating a creamier sauce. However, if you or someone you're cooking for has an egg allergy or dietary restrictions, you can leave it out. The sauce may be a bit thinner and less creamy, but it should still taste great. Just make sure to blend the sauce well and give it a good stir or shake before drizzling it onto your spiedies.
- Marination Time: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. If time allows, consider marinating the chicken overnight.
- Grilling: Be careful not to overcook the chicken to keep it juicy and tender. Keep an eye on your skewers and turn them regularly for even grilling.
- Substitutions: While chicken is traditionally used, feel free to use other meats like pork, beef, or lamb.
- Serving: Chicken Spiedies are best served fresh off the grill. However, if you're planning to serve them later, consider grilling the bread and heating up the chicken just before serving.
- Garlic Sauce: This sauce is quite flavorful. If you're not a fan of strong garlic flavor, you might want to start with half the amount and adjust to taste.
- Storage: Leftover Chicken Spiedies can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the chicken.
