Cómo preparar Flavorful Grilled Chicken Kabobs

  1. Cut 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs into 1-inch cubes.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken with 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour.
  4. While the chicken marinates, heat your gas grill to medium-high heat.
  5. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon sweet paprika, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or chipotle powder for extra heat).
  7. Process 4 slices of bacon in a food processor until a smooth paste forms (about 30-45 seconds), scraping down the bowl as needed.
  8. Add the bacon paste and spice mixture to the chicken.
  9. Using your hands or a rubber spatula, thoroughly mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
  10. Thread the chicken onto skewers, rolling or folding as needed to maintain 1-inch cubes.
  11. Place the kebabs on the preheated grill.
  12. Turn the kebabs one-quarter turn every 2-2.5 minutes until well browned and slightly charred (about 8 minutes for breasts, 10 minutes for thighs).
  13. Brush the top surface of the kebabs with 1/4 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce.
  14. Flip the kebabs and cook for about 1 minute until the sauce is slightly browned.
  15. Brush the other side with the remaining 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce.
  16. Flip again and continue cooking until the sauce is browned and the chicken is cooked through (about 1 minute more).
  17. Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  18. Serve immediately, passing extra BBQ sauce separately.
