Time 32m

Yield 5 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
5 (8-inch) wooden skewers, soaked 1 hour
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1/2 cup mint leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon ground ginger
1/2 tablespoon kosher salt
1 lime, juiced
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1/2 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  • For the Chicken:
  • Combine all of the spices, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the cubed chicken and toss to coat. Put the chicken on the skewers and lay on the grill. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, turning often so that the spices don't burn, about 10 to 12 minutes. Arrange on a serving platter and serve with the Herb Sauce.
  • For the Herb Sauce:
  • Add the fresh herbs, spices, salt, lime juice, and honey to a blender carafe. Blend to combine and with the motor running, slowly add the olive oil. Once combined, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, and transfer to a serving bowl.

Not bad! The chicken was a bit dry, but the herb sauce helped. I'll try marinating the chicken for longer next time.

These were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought herb sauce and it was still delicious.

These skewers were easy to make and turned out great! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs and they were still very moist. The herb sauce is delicious.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken skewers, but these were amazing! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the herb sauce was the perfect complement. Will definitely make these again.
