🍢 Zesty Citrus Chicken Skewers
In a large bowl, mix together the orange zest and juice, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, smoked paprika, minced garlic, honey, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined. Marinate the Chicken Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and stir well to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor). Prepare the Skewers Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking. Grill the Skewers Preheat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a slight char. Garnish and Serve Once cooked, transfer the skewers to a serving plate. Garnish with extra orange zest, a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and lemon wedges on the side.
Avocado-Stuffed Chicken Breast
In a medium bowl, combine the mashed avocados, diced cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well until creamy and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Prepare the Chicken Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place each chicken breast on a cutting board and slice a deep pocket horizontally through the side, being careful not to cut all the way through. Season both sides of the chicken and the inside of the pocket with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Stuff the Chicken Carefully spoon the avocado mixture into each pocket, stuffing generously. Secure the opening with toothpicks to keep the filling inside while cooking. Sear the Chicken Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Bake the Chicken Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C). Garnish and Serve Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or basil and serve with lemon wedges.
