Instructions

Step 1/4

Prepare Skewers & Marinade

  • 3 Wooden Skewers
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Chili Powder
  • 150g Chicken
  • 1/2 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1/2 Red Onion

Soak wooden skewers in water for 15-20 minutes to prevent burning. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper to create a marinade. Add in chicken cubes with bell pepper and red onion chunks, let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2/4

Cook Rice

  • 50g White Rice, Uncooked

Rinse rice under cold water until clear, then drain. In a saucepan add a pinch of salt, then prepare rice according to package instructions.

Step 3/4

Grill Skewers

Preheat a grill or grill pan with oil to medium-high heat. Thread the skewers with your cubes of chicken, red onion and bell pepper. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and peppers are slightly charred.

Step 4/4

Serve

Let the skewers rest briefly after grilling, then serve alongside the fluffy cooked rice.
