Marinated Chicken And Grape Skewers


Marinated Chicken And Grape Skewers
October, 2002

Serves 8 / Smoky, seasoned grilled chicken makes a wonderful contrast with sweet, juicy grapes. Instead of 8-inch skewers, shorter wooden skewers could be used for smaller portions. Just remember to soak the skewers in water at least 30 minutes before grilling to avoid burning them.

Marinade
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon Spanish sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
32 large red seedless grapes

1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a medium-size bowl. Add the chicken, stirring to coat well. Marinate at least 2 hours, or overnight.
2. On eight 8-inch skewers, alternately thread chicken pieces with the grapes (about 4 grapes per skewer). Over a medium-hot grill, grill skewers, turning once, until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
