Lemon and Cumin Chicken Skewers

1 grated lemon peel

  • Juice of half a lemon

2 tablespoons of olive oil

Salt

Cumin

Soak the short skewers in water. Cut each piece of chicken into 6-7 pieces.

Place the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl. Add cumin, paprika, coriander seeds, turmeric, dried thyme, crushed garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let the marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4-6 hours.

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers. Heat a cast iron pan on the stove. Place the skewers in the heated pan and cook, turning frequently, until cooked through on all sides. Once cooked, squeeze lemon juice over them and sprinkle with cumin before serving.
