Preparation

  • In a large bowl, pour the beer, honey, orange zest, olive oil, salted herbs and coriander, then season with salt and pepper. Mix and set aside.
  • Place the chicken in a large hermetic dish and pour half the marinade over it. Close the dish, mix well and place in the fridge for 3 hours or even better, all night. Reserve the rest of the marinade in the fridge as well.
  • Skew in this order: chicken, onion, chicken, onion, lemon. Repeat to fill your skewers and make sure you have a maximum of 3 pieces of lemon per skewer. (If using wooden skewers, dip them in water for about 30 minutes before cooking.)
  • Preheat the BBQ to maximum and reduce to medium heat. Place the skewers on the grills and cook about 8-10 minutes in total, turning them regularly. Baste constantly with the rest of the fresh marinade! Serve with rice and mint yogurt if desired.
