Important

Firstly, I have to tell you I did not receive any products from The Kebab Club. I came across them on Facebook and had to place an order immediately!

What's that? You don't have a jar of chicken shish kebab marinade? 😨

No worries, you CAN still make this recipe, just replace it with Belazu Rose Harissa Paste as the ingredients are pretty much the same. 😉 Any other brand of rose harissa isn't the same - trust me.

Now, as I'm a food blogger I would usually make my own marinade, but I wanted to give their Chicken Shish Kebab Marinade a go. I have to say, I am totally impressed. 

Of course, the marinade wasn't all I ordered! 

For this dish, I also used their Turkish garlic sauce and their Turkish chilli sauce - Oh my goodness, their sauces are so addictive!

Okay, folks, this is how easy these shish kebabs are to make!

Ingredients

  • Chicken fillets
  • Chicken shish marinade or Belazu Rose Harissa Paste mixed with a little oil (see recipe card)
  • Runny honey

Chicken pieces in shish marinade.

Dice the chicken into large pieces and put them into a bowl, add the marinade and mix well to coat.

Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least an hour - overnight is even better.

Put the chicken pieces onto skewers.

When you're ready to cook, remove from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking and drizzle them with honey.

Heat up your griddle pan and cook the chicken skewers for about 5 minutes before turning, cook for a further 3 minutes or so until fully cooked.

*Timings are approximate since it depends on how big or small your chicken pieces are.
