Chicken Spiedies

Spiedies are cubed meat (lamb, chicken or pork) that are marinated in a special “spiedie” sauce, skewered, and grilled.

Spiedies are an iconic food in the Southern Tier of upstate New York where I was born and bred.

INGREDIENTS:

– White Wine Vinegar – Soy Sauce – Lemon Juice – Cloves of Garlic – Bay Leaves – Dried Oregano – Italian Seasoning – Parsley – Thyme – Sugar – Salt

The flavor we’re aiming for is a mellowed-out garlic, a bite from the vinegar, and all of those herby flavors infused in the meat.

Preheat your grill to med/high heat. While the grill heats, thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers. Grill about 5 mins per side, turning once.
