Anna's Family Kitchen was inspired by my love of food and desire to feed my family healthy, home cooked wholesome meals that are beautifully presented and appealing but don’t require hours of prep in the kitchen.
Chicken Shish Kebabs
Part of a pick and mix dinner, I like to serve these Kebabs alongside a big bowl of couscous, seared Halloumi (delicious coated in sweet chilli sauce), hummus, wraps and a chopped salad. Something to please everyone! The boys like to encase the chicken, salad & hummus in a wrap, I like the kebabs on a bed of couscous with a salad side & a dollop of hummus.

Simply mix together all the ingredients apart from the chicken to make a paste and add the chicken making sure it’s completely coated.

Skewer the chicken and lay on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
