Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup dry white wine
2 Tbsp Better Than Bouillon® Italian Herb Base
1¼ Lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
12 slices prosciutto, halved lengthways
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 lemon wedges

Directions

  • 1

    Preheat grill to medium-high heat; grease grates well.

  • 2

    In medium bowl, stir together oil, wine and Culinary Collection Italian Herb. Add chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 5 minutes.

  • 3

    Fold halved prosciutto slice back and forth twice, then thread onto skewer and 1 piece of chicken. Continue threading prosciutto and chicken onto skewer (for a total of 4 to 5 pieces of chicken). Repeat to make 8 spiedini.

  • 4

    Grill spiedini, turning occasionally for 10 to 12 or until chicken is well marked and cooked through.

  • 5

    Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve with lemon.

Tips: If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for 20 to 30 minutes before using to prevent them from charring on the grill.

Serve spiedini as a wrap in grilled flatbread with arugula, tomatoes and garlic mayo, or over rice.

Prepare these as an appetizer if desired: Use shorter skewers, and cut folded prosciutto slices in half.
