Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, combine the chicken and chorizo. Drizzle with olive oil, sherry vinegar. Sprinkle with fresh oregano, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated. (5 minutes)

03

Step
20 mins

Thread the chicken, chorizo, red onion, and red bell pepper onto the skewers, alternating ingredients to ensure each piece of chicken is paired with chorizo. Place the assembled skewers on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (20 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Grill the skewers over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the chorizo is nicely browned, approximately 10 minutes.

For best results, soak bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
Serve these skewers with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a side of grilled vegetables or a vibrant salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for spiciness.

    I used poblano peppers instead of red bell peppers for a bit more heat, and they were delicious!

    Soaking the skewers is a must! I learned that the hard way.

    I marinated the chicken overnight, and it was incredibly tender and flavorful.

    The sherry vinegar adds a lovely tang. I will definitely make these again.

  • Karlee Bayer

    Make sure not to overcrowd the grill, or the chicken won't cook evenly.
