Garlic Cilantro Chicken Kabobs

1.5 chicken breast, cut into kabob size pieces
1/2 tsp ginger, chopped
1/2 tsp garlic, chopped
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
Dash of paprika
1 green chilli
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, fresh

Skewer sticks

Wash and pat dry. Sprinkle some salt, paprika, turmeric and meat tenderizer. Meat Tenderizers are very salty so be careful when you add the salt. In a small food processor, combine the ginger, garlic, green chilli, and coriander leaves. Drizzle some olive oil and blend (either coarsely or to a fine paste).  Rub the mixture on the chicken pieces. Set aside in a fridge for 2 to 4 hours before grilling. 

Dip the skewer sticks in water for a while.  Thread the kabob pieces into the skewers. Preheat the grill to 400F.  Grill the skewers for about 8 to 10 minutes. Do not forget to turn the skewers so every side sits on the grill.  Remember that chicken breast cooks relatively faster than thighs or other meat and it continues to cook even after taken out of the grill.  When ready remove the kabobs and wrap them tightly in a foil. Let sit for a few minutes before serving. 

Note:
The time suggested is just a guide. Make sure you check the chicken pieces for doneness by: poking a fork in to see if the meat has turned white on the inside which suggests that its cooked or using a meat thermometer check if the internal food temperature is at 165F.

I added 1 tsp garlic and it was too strong. If you like the garlicky taste increase from 1/2 to 1 tsp.
