Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced canned chipotle chilies*
1 teaspoon dried cumin
1 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 120 pieces)
40 6-inch bamboo skewers, soaked in water 30 minutes, drained
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds (black or white or combination)
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Blend first 5 ingredients in processor until smooth. Season sauce with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Bring to room temperature before using.)

These chicken skewers are a great way to use up leftover chicken. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat more vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but these skewers were really good. The marinade made the chicken really flavorful and juicy.

I've tried many chicken skewer recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chipotle-sesame marinade is perfect.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken skewers turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

The chicken was a bit dry for my taste, but the marinade was delicious. I think I'll try grilling them next time instead of baking them.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but these skewers were just the right amount of heat for me. The chipotle gave them a nice smoky flavor without being overpowering.

Absolutely delicious! The chipotle-sesame marinade gave the chicken a wonderful smoky and slightly spicy flavor. I served them with a side of jasmine rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a hit with my family.
