Argentine Grilled Chicken Skewers

Argentine Grilled Chicken Skewers I found this one on line while I was putzing around. It sounded good and it seemed quick and easy so I gave it a shot. The flavor was marvelous. It lived up to my expectations. 4 chicken breasts or chicken thighs 1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1 inch squares 1/2 green bell pepper, cut into 1 inch squares 2 yellow onions, cut into eighths 1 cup cherry tomatoes bamboo skewers 1/2 cup oil 3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 teaspoon paprika (www.worldspice.com has the real stuff) 1/2 teaspoon fresh Mexican oregano kosher salt black peppercorns

4 servings 45 minutes 30 mins prep Soak the skewers for an hour. Set charcoal alight. In your handy mortar grind the Oil, Garlic, Paprika, Oregano, Salt, and Peppercorns. Skin, debone, and de-fat the chicken. Cut into 1/2 cubes. Rinse, pat dry, stir into Marinade. Coat well. Thread the Onion, Chicken, Peppers, and Cherry Tomatoes alternately onto the skewers. Grill over medium coals for 15-20 minutes'til everything is done. This works well grilled over a hibachi or other small grill on a picnic. Prepare everything at home and do the grilling at the picnic site. It's almost as good cooked under the broiler at home.
