Chicken kebobs - Shish Taouk



April is here!! Weather is warmer and we are taking advantage of grilling outside. One of my daughter's favorite is shish taouk. I serve it with hummus pita bread and fattoush salad. So for her April birthday we celebrated it with her favorite food and some of her favorite friends! Thanks for coming !!! :)


Ingredients:


2 pounds boneless skinless chicken

1 tablespoon paprika

½ teaspoon rep pepper

1 tablespoon red pepper paste

2 tablespoons lemon juice

5 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1. Cut the chicken into medium size cubes. In a bowl mix the paprika, lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper paste, cubed onion, salt and pepper.



2. Marinade the chicken cubes in the mixture for 1-2 hours or overnight.


3. When ready to cook, thread the chicken pieces on a skewer. Alternate with some vegetable like green pepper and mushroom and onion.


4. Simply grill until chicken begins to brown on all sides.


The chicken taouk can be served with hummus and pita bread.
