Spiced Chicken Kebabs

Serves 4

Preparation and cooking time- 25 minutes

Last week I returned from Crete and I cannot recommend a visit to the island highly enough. In addition to being beautiful, it’s a culinary inspiration goldmine.

The inspiration to create this recipe came from sitting in the sun, overlooking the sea in Rethymno, and tucking into a dish that married together traditional Cretan herbs with a spicy Turkish twist. These spiced chicken kebabs are an homage to that peaceful, delicious moment. You can try this recipe on the barbecue if you like, and I recommend a culture clash by pairing it with a nice cold glass of Yorkshire Heart Heartger Lager.
