MEXICAN CHICKEN ON STICKS 15 skinless and boneless chicken thighs Marinade 30 6-inch wooden skewers soaked in water for 1 hour. |

In a blender or food processor add all of the marinade ingredients with the exception of the olive oil. Process until well combined - about 30 seconds. Continue to process and gradually add the oil in a steady stream. May be covered and refrigerated up to 24 hours in advance.
Place the chicken into a sealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade overtop. Seal the bag tightly, add the chicken and toss until it is well coated with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for 5 hours or overnight.
Preheat the barbecue to 375°F/190°C or medium high heat.
Remove the chicken from the plastic bag and discard the marinade. Thread each piece of chicken onto 2 of the soaked skewers, making a raft of chicken.
Oil the grill lightly and place chicken directly over heat source. To
prevent burning of the skewers place a thin sheet of foil on the grill for the
skewer ends to hang over.
Grill for approximately 3 minutes per side, or until cooked and golden brown
char marks are achieved. Remove from grill, tent loosely with foil and let rest
4 minutes before serving.
Yield: 15 chicken skewers
