Citrus Chicken with Cilantro Lemon Sauce

Don’t save grilling just for the weekends this summer! You can whip these citrus chicken skewers up in a cinch even on a weeknight. Uncle Matt’s No Sugar Added Lemonade brings a perfectly tart kick to the marinade. Plus, you won’t believe you were able to make such a delicious sauce in a blender. Serve with a side of rice and your favorite greens for a complete meal.

Chicken:

  • 2 pounds organic boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 inch cubes
  • ½ cup Uncle Matt’s Organic No Sugar Added Lemonade
  • 2 tbsp organic EVOO
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • Organic chopped cilantro leaves for garnish
  • Organic lemon slices for garnish

Sauce:

½ cup full-fat organic coconut milk

¼ cup Uncle Matt’s Organic No Sugar Added Lemonade

2 cloves organic garlic

¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves

¼ tsp sea salt

 

Directions:

1.     Toss chicken in lemonade, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes before grilling

2.     Assemble the skewers with about 10 pieces of chicken on each one. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

3.     Heat the grill. Cook the skewers on each side for 4-5 minutes until chicken is starting to brown and reaches internal temp of 165 degrees. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

4.     Prepare the sauce by adding the ingredients to a blender. Blend on high for a minute until mixture is smooth.

5.     Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with extra cilantro and lemon.
