Homemade Chicken Kebabs

Preparing the skewers

1. Submerge the skewers in water to stop them from burning during cooking. Soak for 10 minutes, and use a plate to weigh them down if needed.
2. Combine the paprika, minced garlic, 2 tbsp of olive oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
3. Add the diced chicken thigh and use your hands to coat the chicken evenly in the marinade.
4. Thread the chicken onto the bamboo skewers. This recipe will make approximately ten skewers.
