Smoky Paprika Chicken Skewers

Chicken thigh chunks soaked in smoked paprika, garlic and lemon, then charred on the grill bars until the edges catch. Needs 1 hour marinating.

Ingredients

  • 700 gram chicken thigh fillets
  • 2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 3 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 piece lemon
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. 1Cut the chicken thighs into 3 cm chunks and drop them into a large bowl.
  2. 2Crush the garlic and add it with the smoked paprika, cumin, olive oil, salt and the juice of the lemon.
  3. 3Toss until every piece is coated, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  4. 4Thread the chicken onto 8 skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece.
  5. 5Heat the barbecue grill bars to medium-high for 5 minutes and oil them lightly.
  6. 6Grill the skewers for 12 minutes, turning every 3 minutes, until charred in patches.
  7. 7Cut into the thickest chunk to check the meat is white right through with clear juices, or 75°C on a thermometer.
