Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 1/2-3 lbs. of boneless chicken breast, cubed
  • Skewers, (if wooden, soak them in water before threading with the chicken)
  • 1/2 cup of olive oil
  • Juice of 1 1/2 lemons
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. coarse-ground black pepper
  • 1 tbs. dried oregano, crushed
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar
  • 1/2 cup Miller's Banana Pepper Sauce: Hot, plus more for serving
  • 1/4 cup of fresh grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup of fresh Italian parsley, chopped, plus more for garnish

Serving Suggestions:

  • Sliced tomato
  • Sliced cucumbers
  • Red onion - sliced thin
  • Kalamata olives or olives of your choice
  • Salad greens
  • Fresh Lemon wedges
  • Warmed Pita bread

Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken into 2-inch cubes for the skewers.
  2. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt, pepper, dried oregano, sugar, Italian parsley, and fresh grated cheese.
  3. Add the chicken cubes to the bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
  4. Once marinated, thread the skewers with the chicken, discarding the remaining marinade.
  5. Brush a cast-iron griddle pan or a large cast-iron pan with olive oil.  You only want to brush the pan to prevent sticking.
  6. Place the skewers on the griddle and brush them with the Miller's Banana Pepper Sauce: Hot.
  7. Turn them about 3 - 4 minutes into the cooking process and brush them with the Miller's Sauce once again to achieve a beautiful golden color on all sides.
  8. The cooking process should take about 10-12 minutes, depending on how large the chicken is cubed.  The internal temperature should be 165° F., and the juices should run clear.
  9. Garnish with Fresh Italian parsley and more fresh grated Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with more Miller's Banana Pepper Sauce: Hot if desired.
