Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons Cajun Blackened Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
- Lime wedges (for serving)
- Wooden or metal skewers
Directions
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine the Cajun Blackened Seasoning, olive oil, honey, lime juice, and minced garlic. Mix well to form a smooth marinade.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken cubes in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well-coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4+ hours for more intense flavor.
Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
Grill the Skewers
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a slight char.
Serve
Transfer the skewers to a serving platter.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
