Butter Recipe

Butter Baste and Skewering

1. 1

   Prepare butter mixture

   In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and cook 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice, salt, pepper, and paprika. Keep warm.

2. 2

   Skewer prep

   If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread chicken cubes onto skewers, about 4-6 pieces per skewer.

3. 3

   Butter brush

   Brush half of the butter mixture over all sides of the skewered chicken pieces.

4. 4

   Grill or broil

   Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with remaining butter, until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature 165°F (74°C)).

5. 5

   Finish and serve

   Remove from heat, rest 2 minutes, and sprinkle chopped parsley over the skewers before serving.
