Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Chicken thighs — To ensure juicy and tender chicken, marinate the chicken for at least 1 hour. This will help the flavors penetrate the meat and enhance its tenderness.

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.

Presentation advice

Arrange the skewers on a platter, placing them diagonally for an appealing visual effect. Sprinkle some paprika or dried herbs over the skewers for an extra pop of color.
