Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup tomato paste
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon crushed Aleppo pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
3 ice cubes
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 boneless and skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

Steps:

1 Day in Advance In a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade, combine the tomato paste, lemon juice, Aleppo pepper, garlic, white pepper, salt and ice cubes. Drizzle in the oil a little at a time as you process, until you get a thick paste. Place the chicken in a bowl and coat well with the paste. Cover and refrigerate overnight. On the Day To cook, build a fire in an outdoor grill. Scrape the marinade off the chicken (discarding the paste) and arrange the chicken cubes on skewers. Grill for 8-10 minutes, turning to cook evenly on all sides. (The chicken skewers can also be broiled.)
