Authentic Upstate Spiedies.
- 2 -3 lbs boneless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup white vinegar or 1/4 cup dry wine
- 3 garlic cloves (finely chopped or pressed)
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 tablespoon mint leaf, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- Dice chicken breasts into 1" cubes.
- Blend the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar or wine, garlic, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic salt, crushed mint leaf, salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Add chicken to the marinade, stirring. I like to bag it in zip lock bags (I always make a double batch so I can freeze some).
- This needs to marinate at least 24 hrs in the refrigerator. The acid content of the marinade tenderizes the chicken by "cooking" it to a degree.
- Skewer the meat on kabob sticks; grill until firm.
- Serve on sliced Italian bread, and God bless you if you can get Romas from upstate NY or Raliegh NC.
