Ingredients Notes For Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers:
- Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into uniform pieces for even cooking.
- Parmesan Cheese: Freshly grated for the best flavor and texture in the marinade.
- Garlic: Minced or crushed, it’s the key ingredient for that aromatic punch.
- Olive Oil: Helps to bind the marinade and ensures the chicken stays moist while grilling.
- Herbs and Seasonings: Like parsley, salt, and pepper to enhance the natural flavors of the chicken.
Recipe Steps:
- Marinate the Chicken: Combine olive oil, garlic, grated Parmesan, herbs, and seasonings in a bowl. Add the chicken pieces, coating them thoroughly. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably a few hours.
- Prep the Skewers: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, packing them closely but not too tightly.
- Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
- Serve: Let the skewers rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional Parmesan and fresh herbs if desired.
Storage Options:
- Refrigerate: Keep leftover chicken skewers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Best reheated on the grill or in an oven to maintain the texture, but can also be microwaved if needed.
