Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
8 (10-inch) skewers
1 1/2 cups seedless green grapes
Cooking spray
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Directions

In a medium sized bowl whisk together the oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, coriander, and salt. Add the chicken to the marinade and toss to coat. Marinate the chicken for 20 minutes. While the chicken is marinating, soak the skewers in water if wooden.

Thread 4 pieces of the chicken and 4 grapes onto the skewers, alternating them. Spray a grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over a medium-high heat, or prepare an outdoor grill. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Sprinkle with mint and serve with lemon wedges.

BRIDAL SHOWER HIT!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made these ahead of time and was concerned about what would happen if I froze them. I am pleased to say that they grilled... perfectly after thawing. All the Girls loved them.Read more

I loved this simple recipe. I couldn't believe the amount of flavor in the chicken after just 20 minutes of marinating. ... Will definitely add to my regulars.Read more

Fantastic!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a duper easy, quick, flavor packed chicken dish that you can easily make year round. The mint is optional, in my... opinion and the rest of the items are affordable and easy to get any time of year. I loved that the chicken only needed to marinade for 20 minutes. I'm definitely making this again, next time for company! I cooked the skewers on the grill which made for very easy clean up.Read more
