Argentine Grilled Chicken Skewers image

I found this one on line while I was putzing around. It sounded good and it seemed quick and easy so I gave it a shot. The flavor was marvelous. It lived up to my expectations.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 chicken breasts or 4 chicken thighs
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1 inch squares
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into 1 inch squares
2 yellow onions, cut into eighths
1 cup cherry tomatoes
bamboo skewer
1/2 cup oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon paprika (www.worldspice.com has the real stuff)
1/2 teaspoon fresh Mexican oregano
kosher salt
black peppercorns

Steps:

  • Soak the skewers for an hour.
  • Set charcoal alight.
  • In your handy mortar grind the Oil, Garlic, Paprika, Oregano, Salt, and Peppercorns.
  • Skin, debone, and de-fat the chicken.
  • Cut into 1/2 cubes.
  • Rinse, pat dry, stir into Marinade.
  • Coat well.
  • Thread the Onion, Chicken, Peppers, and Cherry Tomatoes alternately onto the skewers.
  • Grill over medium coals for 15-20 minutes'til everything is done.
  • This works well grilled over a hibachi or other small grill on a picnic.
  • Prepare everything at home and do the grilling at the picnic site.
  • It's almost as good cooked under the broiler at home.
