Citrus Herb Chicken Bites



1-1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Citrus Herb Marinade:
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp grated lemon rind
1 tsp orange rind
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp orange juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce

1. Citrus Herb Marinade: In large bowl, whisk together fresh coriander, oil, lemon and orange rinds, lemon and orange juices, garlic, ground coriander and hot pepper sauce; set aside.
2. Cut chicken into forty-eight 1-inch cubes; add to marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 8 hours.)

3. Onto each of 24 small skewers or sturdy toothpicks, thread 2 chicken cubes. Place, 1 inch apart, on foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with remaining marinade in bowl; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil, turning once, until chicken is browned and no longer pink inside, 6 to 8 minutes.

Yield: 24 skewers
