Instructions
Thread the chicken pieces onto metal skewers.* Combine all of the spices in a small bowl, then spread evenly onto a flat surface. Roll the skewers in the spice mixture until evenly coated.
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Spray the pan with olive oil, then cook the skewers for 2 minutes per side, 8 minutes total, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl. Serve the skewers with a side of dipping sauce.
Notes
*If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to use to avoid scorching.To store your Chicken Kabob leftovers, place them in an airtight container, or wrap them tightly in foil, and refrigerate for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze the cooked skewers in a freezer-safe container or wrapped in foil for up to 2 months.To reheat, thaw overnight in the fridge if frozen, then warm in a grill pan or microwave until heated through. For best results, avoid overcooking during reheating to keep the chicken tender.
