Categories     Appetizers

Yield 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 lb skirt steak
2 lb boneless pork shoulder, thinly sliced
2 ½ tablespoons salt, divided
1 ½ tablespoons black pepper, divided
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons cumin
6 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup lime juice, plus more for serving
2 large white onions, halved
1 large white onion, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
10 corn tortillas, medium
1 cup guacamole
1 cup sour cream
1 cup pico de gallo
3 wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Slice the skirt steak into roughly 3-inch (7-cm) pieces. Transfer the pieces to a medium bowl.
  • Thinly slice the pork shoulder, then transfer the pieces to a separate medium bowl.
  • Pound the chicken thighs flat, then slice them in quarters. Transfer the pieces to a third medium bowl.
  • In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon pepper, paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic, and lime juice. Stir until there are no lumps.
  • Evenly divide the marinade among the 3 bowls of chicken, steak, and pork.
  • Toss the meats until they are evenly coated, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place 3 onion halves in the middle of the baking sheet, then insert a skewer in each onion, evenly spaced, near the inner edges.
  • Thread a piece of chicken onto one skewer, then a piece of steak onto the second, followed by a piece of pork onto the third. Repeat with the rest of the meat.
  • Secure another onion half onto the tops of the skewers to hold the towers together.
  • Bake for about 1½ hours, until the meat is slightly brown on the edges.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C).
  • On one side of the baking sheet, toss the bell peppers and sliced onion with the remaining ½ tablespoon of salt, remaining ½ tablespoon of pepper, and the oil.
  • On the other side of the baking sheet, spread out the tortillas. Cover the tortilla side with foil.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, until the edges of the meat and the vegetables are slightly charred.
  • Slice your meat of choice into a tortilla, add vegetables, and top with guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, and a squeeze of lime.
  • Enjoy!

  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the canola oil, lime juice and zest, chili powder, cumin, garlic, jalapeno, and salt. Pour over the chicken, seal the bag, the gently “squish” the bag so that the chicken is coated with the marinade. Place the bag in a baking dish to catch any accidental drips, then refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight. If using wooden skewers, soak the skewers in water for at least 20 minutes prior to use.
  • When ready to cook, heat your grill to medium-high. Cut the bell peppers and onion into 3/4-inch chunks, then thread onto skewers with the marinated chicken pieces, alternating the chicken with the vegetables. Lightly oil the grill, then place the kabobs on the grill, cover, and let cook until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink, about 6 to 8 minutes, turning the chicken once or twice throughout so that it cooks evenly.
  • Remove the chicken kebabs to a serving plate and sprinkle with cilantro and a few squeezes of fresh lime juice. Serve warm, garnished with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole as desired.
