Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes suitable for skewering.
- In a medium bowl, mix the salsa sauce, lime juice, honey, and lime zest to create a marinade.
- Add the chicken cubes to the bowl, ensuring they are well-coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a more intense flavor.
- Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers evenly.
- Place the chicken skewers on the preheated grill.
- Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside.
- Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
- While the chicken is grilling, prepare the avocado cream.
- Cut the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
- Add the sour cream to the bowl with the avocado.
- Mash and mix the avocado and sour cream together until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Once the chicken skewers are ready, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
- Serve the chilli chicken skewers hot, accompanied by a generous dollop of avocado cream on the side.
Tips:
- Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
- You can add extra spices or herbs to the marinade according to your taste preferences.
- Ensure the grill is preheated properly to avoid sticking and to get those beautiful grill marks.
- Serve with a side salad or grilled vegetables for a complete meal.
