Chicken skewers in aromatic herbs - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use other meats instead of chicken for the skewers?

Yes, you can substitute chicken with beef, lamb, or even shrimp. Adjust cooking times accordingly to ensure the meat is fully cooked.

How long can I store the marinated chicken before cooking?

The marinated chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. For best results, marinate overnight to enhance flavor.

What can I use to make this recipe vegetarian?

For a vegetarian version, replace chicken with tofu or mushrooms. Use the same marinade and adjust cooking time as needed.

Can I grill the skewers on a stovetop if I don't have an outdoor grill?

Yes, you can use a stovetop grill pan or broil them in the oven. Cook on medium-high heat, turning occasionally for even browning.

What are some good side dishes to serve with these skewers?

Pair them with rice, quinoa, a fresh salad, or grilled vegetables. A yogurt-based dip or tzatziki also complements the flavors well.

How can I adjust the recipe for a smaller portion?

Simply halve the ingredients for fewer skewers. Keep the marinade proportions the same to maintain flavor.

Can I freeze the skewers before or after cooking?

Yes, you can freeze them raw (after marinating) or cooked. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.

What’s the best way to reheat leftover skewers?

Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes or in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. Avoid microwaving to retain texture.

Can I use dried herbs instead of fresh for the marinade?

Yes, but use 1/3 the amount of dried herbs as they are more concentrated. For example, 1 tsp dried instead of 1 tbsp fresh.
