Description
Dill Pickle Chicken Skewers are a flavorful and easy-to-make dish perfect for grilling enthusiasts. Marinated in dill pickle juice and seasoned with spices, these skewers are a delightful treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes and dill pickle juice. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
- Brush the skewers with olive oil and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the chicken.
- Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
- Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For added flavor, try marinating the chicken overnight.
- You can substitute the chicken with shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
- Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
