Chicken Kebab Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the grill to 375 degrees F or preheat a large grill pan over medium heat. Clean and oil the grates or grill pan.
• Combine the lemon zest with the 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, the cumin, turmeric, salt, garlic powder and pepper in a medium bowl; stir together. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Let sit for 5 minutes to 1 hour, then thread 5 to 6 chicken cubes onto each skewer.
• While the chicken marinates, peel the cucumber into long ribbons with a vegetable peeler. Transfer to a small bowl. Add the dill fronds, the juice from 1/2 of the zested lemon and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss and set aside until ready to serve.
• Grill the skewers, turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and all sides are charred, 8 to 10 minutes total. Remove to a platter and squeeze juice from the remaining 1/2 lemon over the top.
• Two minutes before the chicken is done cooking, grill the halloumi until warmed through and lightly charred, about 1 minute per side.
• For each serving, top 1 pita with some of the cucumber salad, 1 to 2 slices of the halloumi and 2 chicken skewers. Drizzle with tahini and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Slice chicken thinly, cut the baguette into 1/2-inch rounds, and cut the sausage links up into chunks, alternating cuts at 45 degree angles for nice triangular shapes.
• Now prepare the kebabs. Take the skewers 1 at a time and begin threading the components alternately. Start with a piece of bread, then chicken, bay leaf, sausage, and bread; repeat this 3 times to fill the skewers, ending with bread.
• Lay the prepared kebabs out on your board and drizzle liberally with extra-virgin olive oil. Squeeze the lemon juice all over and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place the prepared kebabs onto preheated grill and cook for about 7 to 10 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
• While kebabs are roasting you can prepare the salad. In a blender combine the anchovies, garlic, lemon juice, egg yolks and grated Parmesan. Pulse a couple of times to combine, then add the water and blend again. With the motor running, gradually pour the oil through the feed tube and continue to blend until emulsified. Season, to taste, with salt and some freshly ground black pepper.
• In a large mixing bowl add the chopped romaine. When the kebabs are done, remove from the oven and slide the kebab components off the skewers directly into the bowl. Add some dressing and gently toss to combine.
• To plate, garnish with parsley leaves, shaved Parmesan and fresh lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine half the yogurt with the spices, half the garlic, the lemon zest and ½ tsp salt. Tip in the chicken and stir well to coat. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 30 mins or overnight.
• Mix the grated cucumber and the remaining garlic into the remaining yogurt, then season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Set aside in the fridge.
• Mix the finely chopped cucumber and lettuce together, then squeeze over one of the lemon halves and season with a good pinch of salt. Cut the remaining lemon half into quarters. Heat the grill to high or a large griddle pan over a high heat.
• Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto metal skewers, put on a tray and cook under a hot grill or in the griddle pan for 10-12 mins, turning often to ensure it cooks evenly and is charred in places. Warm the flatbreads under the grill or in a toaster.
• Serve the chicken in the flatbreads with the chopped salad and cucumber yogurt. Drizzle with hot sauce before serving, if you like.

Steps:

• Mix the marinade ingredients with some seasoning. Add the chunks of chicken, mix well, cover and chill. Leave to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Soak 12 bamboo skewers in cold water - this will prevent them burning when cooking (or use metal skewers). Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers (discard any remaining marinade), alternating with pieces of pepper and onion. Brush the skewers lightly with oil and season.
• Heat the grill to high. Grill the kebabs for 15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until golden and lightly charred. The veg should be tender, and the chicken cooked through, so it easily slides off the skewers.
• Warm the flatbreads in a griddle pan or dry frying pan on a medium heat until golden and toasted. Serve with the kebabs, lettuce, chilli sauce, extra yogurt and squeeze over some lemon just before eating.
