Preparation steps

1.
Rinse the chicken under cold running water and pat completely dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, cut chicken lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips. Set aside.

In a non-reactive bowl, combine dry ingredients, oil olive, lime juice and diced onion. Pour marinade into a large resealable plastic storage bag, add the chicken strips, reseal the bag and gently shake to coat the chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
3.
Prepare grill for direct grilling.
4.
Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto prepared skewers; reserve marinade.
5.
Arrange skewers on grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through and juices run clear, turning often and basting with marinade. Serve.
