Spice-Crusted Greek Chicken Skewers

Posted on at


INGREDIENTS:

For the Skewers:

  • 1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sizes pieces
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1½ teaspoons paprika
  • 2/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¾ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder


For the Lemony Dipping Sauce:

  • 1¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed


INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Thread the chicken pieces onto metal skewers*. Combine all of the spices in a small bowl, then spread evenly onto a flat surface. Roll the skewers in the spice mixture until evenly coated.
  2. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Spray the pan with olive oil, then cook the skewers for 2 minutes per side, 8 minutes total, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  3. Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl. Serve the skewers with a side of dipping sauce.


Notes:
*If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to using to avoid scorching.
