Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons raw organic honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
zest of one lime
juice of one lime
3 garlic cloves, peeled
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (store bought or homemade)
1 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
2 lb free-range organic chicken breasts, cut into 1½-inch chunks
handful fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

In a blender, combine soy sauce, honey, olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, ginger, Sriracha and salt. Blend until completely smooth. Pour ¼ cup of marinade into a small bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. In a shallow sealable container or in a large Ziploc bag, combine chicken chunks and remaining marinade. Cover or seal and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (marinate overnight for fullest flavor). Remove the chicken from the marinade and skewer onto bamboo sticks that have been soaked in water for 5 minutes. Heat a grill or a grill pan to medium-high (if you're using an outdoor grill lightly oil the grill grates). Grill the chicken kebabs, until golden brown and cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear. Transfer kebabs to a platter and top with chopped cilantro. Serve with reserved marinade on the side. Nutrition Facts One serving yields about 300 calories, 9 grams of fat, 8.5 grams of carbs and 48.5 grams of protein.
