Instructions
Prepare to grill over high heat.
Place cut up chicken pieces in a medium sized bowl and set to the side.
In a blender or food processor add cilantro, jalapeno, lime, lime zest, oil, and vinegar and puree until nicely blended.
Pour marinade over chicken and marinade for at least 20 minutes. (The longer it marinade, the better it tastes)
Place marinaded chicken on skewers alternating with chunks of pepper and grill for about 5-8 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink.
Remember to soak wooden skewers before adding the chicken, so they don’t catch on fire!
