How To Make chicken pinchitos with avocado chimichurri
-
1Cut chicken into chunks.
-
2Stir together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper and marinate the chicken pieces in this for at least two hours.
-
3While chicken marinates, soak wooden skewers for at least an hour to cut down on the wood scorching during the grill time.
-
4Gently stir together the chimichurri sauce with the avocado, trying not to moosh it too much if it is very ripe. You want it chunky--not like a mashed guacamole.
-
5Grill skewers over moderately hot coals for about 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and lightly charred. Serve kebabs with chunk chimichurri.
