3 tablespoons olive oil
4 large boneless skinless chicken thighs

These skewers were a bit dry, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try marinating the chicken for longer next time.

These skewers were easy to make and turned out great! I used chicken thighs instead of breasts, and they were still very moist. The marinade was flavorful and the chicken cooked evenly.

These Persian chicken skewers were a hit at my last barbecue! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the flavors were amazing. I especially loved the combination of saffron and lime.
