Middle Eastern Chicken Skewers

1. 1

   If using bamboo skewers, place them in a shallow bowl of water to soak. Coat grill grates with oil or high-heat cooking spray.

2. 2

   Heat the grill on high ( or load with charcoal & start fire to grey-coated coals & hot heat).

3. 3

   In a large zip-close plastic bag, combine the cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, paprika, mustard powder and salt. Close the bag and shake to blend the seasonings.

4. 4

   Place the chicken in the bag, then add the olive oil.

5. 5

   Close the bag, gently pressing out any air.

6. 6

   Gently knead the chicken, working the seasonings and oil so it thoroughly coats all of the meat. (I plan to toss it in the fridge overnight at this point).

7. 7

   Place a chicken tender on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the meat reaches at least 165 degrees on an instant read thermometer.
