Tips & Tricks
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
- Soaking the wooden skewers in water prevents them from burning on the grill.
- Basting the skewers with the marinade while grilling will add extra flavor and moisture to the chicken.
- Serve the Liechtensteiner-style Grilled Chicken Skewers with a side of Liechtensteiner potato salad for a complete meal.
- For a refreshing twist, squeeze some lemon juice over the skewers before serving.
Serving advice
Serve the Liechtensteiner-style Grilled Chicken Skewers as a main course alongside a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables. Garnish with chopped parsley or chives for an added touch of freshness.
