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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
