Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast or thigh pieces
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup plant-based Parmesan
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Additional Tools

  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Stir in the plant-based Parmesan to create a flavorful marinade base.
  2. Marinate the chicken: Cut the chicken into evenly sized pieces to ensure uniform cooking. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss well to coat every piece thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse the meat.
  3. Assemble the skewers: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto wooden or metal skewers, leaving small gaps between pieces to allow heat circulation during cooking.
  4. Cook the skewers: Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and edges are golden with slight crispiness. If baking, cook at 400°F for 20 minutes and broil for the last 2 minutes for a browned finish.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Remove the skewers from heat and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with additional fresh parsley and a sprinkle of plant-based Parmesan before serving.

Notes

  • Cut chicken pieces evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
  • Marinate chicken for 30 to 60 minutes to maximize flavor without compromising texture.
  • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  • Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure safety and juiciness.
  • Let skewers rest for 5 minutes after cooking to lock in juices.
