👨🍳 How To Make
Follow these steps:
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, combine the chicken chunks, melted butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper, mixing well to evenly coat the chicken.
Step 2
Thread the marinated chicken chunks evenly onto 6 skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
Step 3
Place the skewers on a disposable aluminum baking tray (so air can circulate around them) and lay fresh rosemary sprigs on top of the chicken pieces.
Step 4
Bake for about 15 minutes, removing rosemary before flipping halfway through for even browning on all sides.
Step 5
Once the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred, remove from the oven, remove the rosemary sprigs, and let cool slightly before serving.
💡Tips
1. Marinate for Maximum Flavor
To achieve the most flavorful and tender chicken kabobs, allow sufficient time for the chicken to marinate.
Prepare the marinade in advance and let the chicken chunks soak in the mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
This will give the flavos time to penetrate the meat and help tenderize it. If you’re short on time, even a brief 15-minute marination will make a noticeable difference in taste.
2. Don’t Forget to Flip
To keep the chicken moist and flavorful during cooking, glaze the kabobs with any remaining marinade or a mixture of melted butter and the collected pan juices halfway through the cooking time.
Use a brush to apply the liquid generously over the chicken. Flipping the kabobs once during cooking helps them brown evenly on all sides.
Use tongs to carefully turn the skewers over, ensuring even exposure to the heat for optimum results.
3. Don’t Skimp On The Butter
The butter in this recipe isn’t just for flavor – it also helps keep the chicken moist during cooking.
Make sure you use the full amount called for (3 tablespoons), and ensure it’s completely melted before mixing with the chicken.
For best results, let the melted butter cool slightly before adding to the chicken to prevent it from starting to cook the outside of the chicken pieces.
