Meat Marinade

Skewers

French Fries

Method

Marinating the Meat

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, lime juice, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Meat

    Add the chicken or pork to the marinade, ensuring it is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.

Preparing Skewers

  1. 3

    Soak the Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Skewers

    After marinating, thread the pieces of chicken or pork onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.

Frying the Potatoes

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes (if desired) and cut them into even-sized fries.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F).

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the cut fries to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 8

    Season the Fries

    Sprinkle the fries with salt while they are still hot.

Grilling the Skewers

  1. 9

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 10

    Cook the Skewers

    Place the skewers on the grill, cooking each side for about 4-5 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and has grill marks. Make sure to turn occasionally.

Serving

  1. 11

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the grilled skewers hot with a side of crispy French fries.

  2. 12

    Garnish (Optional)

    Garnish with fresh herbs or lime wedges if desired.
