Tender, Juicy Grilled Chicken Kebabs

These kebabs came straight down to your table from the mountains of the Caucasus! The same recipe works for Armenian kebabs, Georgian kebabs, and really any Caucasian-style kebab with any meat. When the May holidays roll around, kebab season officially opens in our family :) — and I'm sure there are plenty of families like ours. Most people stick to their tried-and-true family marinade, but sometimes you want to try something new. I'm happy to share my recipe for this crowd-pleaser and walk you through how to make chicken kebabs. I'll say it boldly: kebabs made this way simply can't disappoint — chicken breast kebabs are wonderful!

  • I make these kebabs with chicken — it keeps them tender and not too heavy. Cut the fillets into pieces and put them in a large bowl. Peel the onion, slice it into rings, and add it to the meat. Coarsely chop the tomatoes, squeeze their juice into the bowl, and toss in the squeezed tomatoes too. Add the whole jar of adjika and a handful of coarsely chopped fresh herbs. Dress everything with the mayonnaise and mix well with your hands. The marinade is done! Just remember to stir the meat every half hour. Chicken marinated this way is ready to grill in as little as 2 hours! If you like it spicy, cook it in a grill basket, packing the meat in tightly along with the marinade. Serve the breast kebabs with a fresh vegetable salad. Enjoy!
