Dairy-Free Shish Tawook Skewers

Instructions

1. 1Cut the about 680 g of chicken breast into 2.54 cm cubes.
2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 tbsp of olive oil, 3 tbsp of lemon juice, 4 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tbsp of tomato paste, 1 tsp of paprika, 1 tsp of oregano, 1 tsp of salt, and 0.5 tsp of black pepper until well combined.
3. 3Add the about 680 g of chicken cubes to the marinade. Toss to ensure every piece is coated, then cover the bowl and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or for longer in the refrigerator.
4. 4Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece.
5. 5Preheat your grill to medium heat, aiming for a temperature between about 175°C and about 205°C (175°C to 200°C).
6. 6Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 74°C.
7. 7Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
