Marinated Chicken

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade. Add the chicken thighs and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

2

Prepare Skewers

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

3

Skewer the Chicken

Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.

4

Grill the Skewers

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

5

Serve

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the shish kebab chicken with rice and a fresh house salad.
