In The Kitchen - Cilantro Chicken Skewers

Cilantro Chicken Skewers

2 pounds boneless/skinless chicken breast meat
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 bunch fresh cilantro, minced
salt & pepper to taste
cooking skewers, soaked in water to prevent burning, about 20 min.

Cut chicken into 1" cubes and place into a zip lock back with S&P, oil, garlic and cilantro.  Let sit at least 4 hours or overnight if possible.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Put chicken on skewers, cook for 4-5 minutes on each side.

For an added kick, you can drizzle with fresh lime juice while cooking or brush the chicken with chili sauce to create a glaze.

I served this with a couscous and added green onion, lime, cilantro S&P to taste.
