Shish Taouk - Chicken Kebobs

Shish taouk is chicken kebobs. This basic recipe includes the marainade and cooking instrucctions just for the chicken. You can add vegetables to the skewer if desired. I suggest onions, green peppers and mushrooms.
INGREDIENTS:

2 lbs cubed chicken breast
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
PREPARATION:

In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Allow chicken to marinate for 2-24 hours, covered in the refrigerator.

Place chicken on the skewers (about 5 pieces on each).

Grill for 15 minutes or until done. Remember to turn skewers during cooking. Serve shish taouk with a bed of rice, bread and a salad. Enjoy!
