Grilled cilantro lime chicken kabobs. Cilantro Lime Chicken Skewers can be made on the grill or in the oven and are packed with flavor from a delicious homemade marinade with fresh cilantro, lime juice, garlic, cumin, and paprika. Pair it with this some Grilled Potatoes or Street Corn Salad. You can use chicken thighs or breast for the skewers- I like to use thighs because they stay juicier on the grill.
I just love fruit salsas, especially in the summertime.
