Chicken Spiedies on Grilled Bread
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes (plus 1 hour marinating)
Cook Time: 10–12 minutes
Ingredients
Chicken
2½–3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 crusty Italian loaves or baguettes
½ cup quick pickled red chilies (recipe follows)
Spiedie Sauce
½ cup olive oil
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup red wine vinegar
¼ cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon granulated onion
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
1. Place the cubed chicken in a large resealable plastic bag.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the Spiedie Sauce ingredients until well combined.

4. Marinate the chicken for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
5. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers.
6. Preheat a clean grill to high heat.
7. Grill the skewers for 8–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes (a quarter turn each time), until the chicken is lightly charred and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
8. Transfer the cooked skewers to a plate and let rest for a few minutes.
9. Slice the bread in half and grill the cut sides until toasted and lightly charred.
10. Drizzle the grilled bread with some of the reserved Spiedie Sauce.
11. Remove the chicken from the skewers and pile it onto the grilled bread.
12. Top with the pickled red chilies, drizzle with additional Spiedie Sauce if desired, and serve immediately.

Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
3 red jalapeños
1 cup red wine vinegar
½ cup water
¼ cup grenadine
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
