Mediterranean
Chicken Kebabs with a Moroccan Accent
Here's a barbecue chicken recipe that'll have you thinking about
romantic dinners in exotic places. The aromas of the BBQ chicken
cooking over charcoal or even on a normal grill are absolutely
wonderful.
Warm spices and lemon combine to make a truely memorable experience. We
like to use preserved
lemons that we do ourselves, but if you can't get them,
grated lemon zest works very well. A great recipe for your own
Mediterranean diet. Pam's
Top Tips:
Marinate your chicken pieces well in advance
and don't make your heat too fierce - the flavours are quite subtle.

Put the chicken and all the marinade
ingredients into a glass bowl - at least one hour before you want to
cook.
If you're using an open fire soak
the skewers
in cold water to prevent them burning.
Now - when you're ready to cook, thread the
chicken onto the skewers - first a chicken piece, then a
piece of onion and then a piece of preserved lemon. You should get
about 5 pieces of chicken on each skewer.
Grill or Barbecue your kebabs until they're
nicely
browned and cooked through.
Serve with a crispy baked potato, some tomato
salsa and a lovely glass of wine! Cheers!
