Zesty lemon flavors these skewers of chicken breast.
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves - minced
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 1/2 lbs. chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 6 6inch submarine buns or French buns if making sandwiches
Instructions
  1. Mix all of the marinade ingredients together. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the marinade to a little bow and whisk in mayonnaise, lemon juice and red wine vinegar. Refrigerate sauce until ready to use.
  2. Prick the chicken breasts with a fork all over. Cut the chicken into 1 1/4 inch chunks. Add to the marinade. Refrigerate covered for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours.
  3. Remove from marinade and thread onto skewers.
  4. Preheat the grill for 15 minutes on high. Cook the chicken skewers for about 15 minutes until they are charred and cooked through.
  5. If making sandwiches transfer to the buns and drizzle with the mayonnaise mixture. Or do as I did and serve the mayonnaise as a dipping sauce.
