By awright0511

Ingredients

• Chicken Skewers
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
• 8 chicken tenderloins (about 11⁄4 lb)
• Chirmol Salsa
• 5 large ripe plum tomatoes
• Nonstick spray
• 1/4 cup sliced scallions
• 1/4 cup mint
• 1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1/4 tsp salt

Preparation

Step 1

1. Chicken Skewers: Heat outdoor grill. Mix ingredients in a plastic food bag and seal. Marinate 15 minutes. Have ready 8 skewers.

2. Meanwhile, make salsa: Coat tomatoes with nonstick spray. Grill, turning, 5 minutes or until skins are charred. Remove to a bowl; mash until almost smooth. Stir in rest of ingredients.

3. Thread chicken on skewers. Coat with nonstick spray. Grill 4 minutes, turning once, or until lightly charred and cooked through. Serve with the salsa. A nice accompaniment is quick-cooking rice prepared with diced summer squash and grated lemon zest.
