Moroccan Lemon Herb Chicken Skewers Recipe 465

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, 1/4 cup mint, cilantro, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, honey, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 cloves garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, and cayenne in a large bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade in a separate bowl.
• Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Press air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade. Place in a bowl and refrigerate for 5 hours.
• Whisk yogurt, 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup mint, 2 cloves garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl to make sauce. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
• Toss green bell peppers and red onion in the reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Remove chicken from the bag and discard all marinade. Thread chicken, peppers, and onion alternately onto skewers.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Arrange skewers on the grill. Close lid and cook, turning once or twice, until chicken is firm to the touch, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from grill and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with cold sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• For the Chicken:
• Combine all of the spices, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the cubed chicken and toss to coat. Put the chicken on the skewers and lay on the grill. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, turning often so that the spices don't burn, about 10 to 12 minutes. Arrange on a serving platter and serve with the Herb Sauce.
• For the Herb Sauce:
• Add the fresh herbs, spices, salt, lime juice, and honey to a blender carafe. Blend to combine and with the motor running, slowly add the olive oil. Once combined, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, and transfer to a serving bowl.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, mix the first 8 ingredients. Add the chicken; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. Bring to room temperature before grilling. 2. In a small skillet, combine the lemon peel, lemon juice and salt. Cover and simmer until the peel is tender, about 10 minutes. Drain. Transfer the peel to a small bowl. Add the EVOO, parsley and lime juice; whisk to make the vinaigrette. 3. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high. Thread chicken onto 8 metal or soaked wooden skewers; season. Grill until the chicken is browned and cooked through, turning occasionally, 5 to 8 minutes. Drizzle with the vinaigrette before serving.
