Servings: 8 skewers
Author: Diane Schmidt - createdbydiane.com

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 lemons juiced you'll need at least 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry oregano
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • optional fresh oregano you can use this in the marinade and garnish

Instructions

  • Slice chicken thighs into strips to they will skewer easily. I typically cut them into 1 1 /2 inches wide strips.
  • In a large plastic zipper bag combine all ingredients and let chicken combine with marinade.
  • Get your pan or grill hot.
  • Start placing the chicken on the skewers, I put the chicken on the skewers in a "wavy" pattern, alternating the chicken so it won't fall off the skewers as its being cooked.
  • Cook the chicken and rotate it so it cooks evenly until it reaches 170 degrees,
  • This chicken is delicious with a salad, over rice or pasta and make a fun appetizer to enjoy with drinks.
