Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: ezzaytouniothmane@gmail.com
  • Total Time: 24 minute

Ingredients

– 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 1/3 cup olive oil
– 1 tablespoon minced garlic
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
– Skewers (wooden or metal, soaked if wooden)


Instructions

Creating Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers can be done effortlessly by following these simple steps:

1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken pieces, coat well, and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator).

2. Preheat Grill or Oven: Heat your grill to medium-high or preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

3. Prepare Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, they can be used directly.

4. Assemble Skewers: Thread marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the assembled skewers.

6. Cook Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has a slightly crispy exterior. If using an oven, spread the skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes or until done.

7. Check Doneness: Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safety.

8. Garnish: Remove from grill or oven and sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, if desired.

9. Cool (Optional): Let them cool slightly before serving, allowing the flavors to settle.
