Sizzling Chicken Skewers

Sunday, September 14, 2008

"The chicken is marinated in a soy sauce, brown sugar and peanut butter (just to name a few of the ingredients), then grilled or broiled. Delicious."

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3/4 cup salsa
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
  • 2 green bell peppers, seeded and cubed
DIRECTIONS
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine crunchy peanut butter, cilantro, salsa, brown sugar, soy sauce, salt, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic and green onions; mix well. Add chicken to the marinade, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  2. While the chicken is marinating, soak bamboo skewers in water for one hour so they will not burn on the grill.
  3. Preheat the barbeque to a high heat. Or preheat your oven to broil.
  4. Thread chicken onto skewers like a snake, and in between each loop add a cube of bell pepper.
  5. Grill skewers, turning once, over charcoal for 4 to 6 minutes; or broil, until just browned and cooked through.
