Cooking Tips

• If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before threading the chicken to prevent them from burning on the grill.
• You can also cook the chicken spiedini in the oven by broiling them for about 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through.
• For extra flavor, you can add some grated Parmesan cheese to the marinade.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover chicken spiedini can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until heated through.
• Serve the chicken spiedini as an appetizer or as a main dish with a side of pasta or a fresh salad.
