Chicken on skewers

25 minutes
Chicken skewers are a simple and delicious recipe from American cuisine, perfect for barbecues or cozy family dinners. Marinated pieces of chicken breast soaked in a fragrant mix of lemon juice, honey, garlic, and spices gain incredible juiciness and rich flavor. Grilling gives the meat a light caramelized crust and delightful smoky aroma. This dish is especially convenient for serving at parties – it's easy to eat without utensils, and the skewers add a fun serving element. Chicken skewers pair harmoniously with grilled vegetables, fresh salads, or spicy sauces, making the meal diverse and appetizing.
