BARBECUED CHICKEN FAJITA SKEWERS



Barbecued chicken fajita skewers image

Get the kids in the kitchen to prepare this easy BBQ chicken recipe, then assemble together with creamy guacamole on tortilla wraps

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 40m

Yield Makes 6-8 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 limes , plus wedges to serve
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , crushed or finely grated
4 chicken breasts
3 mixed coloured peppers
1 red onion
2 ripe avocados
1 lime
6 cherry tomatoes , halved
warmed tortillas , chopped coriander, soured cream or yogurt, plus chilli sauce for the grown-ups, to serve

Steps:

  • Make the marinade. In a large bowl, juice both the limes. Add the oregano, spices, olive oil and garlic, and mix together. Dice the chicken, then get your child to stir it through the marinade, and set aside.
  • Prepare the vegetables. Deseeding the peppers and halving the onion is tricky, so do this yourself. Children aged from about seven or above can cut them into chunks using a child-friendly knife.
  • Make your skewers. Carefully thread alternate pieces of chicken, peppers and onion onto your skewers. Smaller children might find this a little hard, so the best way is to stab the ingredients and push them up the skewers. When you've used up all the ingredients, set aside. Can be made several hours ahead and chilled until ready to cook.
  • Prepare the guacamole. Stone and peel the avocados, then tip into a bowl with the other ingredients. Get your child to use a potato masher to mash everything together and tip into a serving dish.
  • Cook the skewers. Heat a barbecue or griddle pan. Cook the skewers for 10-12 mins, turning, until they are cooked all the way through. A child from the age of eight can watch over a griddle and turn the skewers with a pair of tongs. Serve the skewers on heated tortillas with the guacamole, soured cream, chopped coriander, lime wedges on the side and chilli sauce for those who like a touch of spice.
