Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set them aside in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mash the garlic cloves into a paste or finely chop them.
Add the garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, honey, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper into the bowl. Whisk to combine and create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and toss to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 8 hours for more flavor).
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, dividing them evenly.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and develops a golden, slightly charred exterior.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Sizzlin' Chicken Skewers hot with your choice of dipping sauce or side dishes like rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.
