Recipe Summary Chicken Fajita Skewers

Great recipe to go with a cold margarita or strawberry water. I served these chicken fajita skewers for Cinco de Mayo this year and they were a hit. Great way to combine a Mexican food favorite with the grill outside. Serve with homemade pinto beans and authentic Mexican rice.

Ingredients | Hawaiian Chicken Skewers

½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 ½ tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 lime, juiced

1 teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

1 pound chicken, cubed or cut into strips

1 onion, cut into bite-sized cubes

1 green bell pepper, cut into bite-sized cubes

12 skewers, or as needed

12 (6 inch) tortillas, warmed

1 (8 ounce) container sour cream, or as needed

1 (8 ounce) jar salsa, or as needed

1 (6 ounce) container guacamole, or as needed (Optional)

Directions

Combine cilantro, oil, vinegar, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper in a big bowl. Add chicken, onion, and bell peppers and toss vigorously until all vegetables and meat are coated with the seasonings. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Assemble kabobs on skewers with 3 pieces of meat opposite the vegetables.

Cook kabobs on the preheated grill, turning constantly to prevent burning, until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.

Serve immediately by placing 1 kabob on a plate with a warm tortilla, sour cream, salsa, and guacamole.

Feel free to use cubed beef in place of chicken.
