Chicken skewers

Creating delicious chicken skewers on a Blackstone griddle is a flavorful and simple process. Here’s a basic recipe for Blackstone Chicken Skewers:

Blackstone Chicken Skewers:

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    • Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are uniform for even cooking.
  2. Marinate the Chicken:
    • In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  3. Coat the Chicken:
    • Place the chicken pieces in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors infuse.
  4. Preheat the Blackstone Griddle:
    • Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat.
  5. Thread the Chicken onto Skewers:
    • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers.
  6. Cook on the Blackstone Griddle:
    • Place the chicken skewers on the preheated griddle. Cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice sear.
  7. Check for Doneness:
    • Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  8. Serve Hot:
    • Remove the chicken skewers from the griddle and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve them hot.
  9. Optional Garnish:
    • Garnish with chopped fresh herbs, a squeeze of lemon, or your favorite sauce.

These Blackstone chicken skewers are versatile and can be enjoyed as a main dish, served over rice, in wraps, or on a salad. Feel free to customize the marinade with your preferred spices and herbs for added flavor.
