Time 6h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium onion, sliced thin
1 lime, juiced
1 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
⅓ teaspoon crushed saffron
¼ cup olive oil
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
metal skewers

Steps:

  • Combine onion, lime juice, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and saffron in a large glass bowl. Mix in olive oil. Press chicken into the bowl lightly and cover with plastic wrap. Let marinate for 6 hours to overnight, mixing every few hours to make sure chicken is coated.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the bowl, shake off excess marinade, and discard marinade left in the bowl. Place chicken onto metal skewers, making sure it's not too tightly packed.
  • Cook skewers on the preheated grill until chicken is browned and no longer pink in the center, turning as needed, 10 to 15 minutes total.

I used thighs instead of breasts, and the kabobs were still juicy and flavorful.
