1-2 tsp ground chiles I omitted
1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro I omitted and added 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
I added some pieces of green pepper and onion, and red cherry and quartered yellow tomatoes
Cut the chicken lengthwise into 1/8 strips and put in a shallow ceramic dish.
Put all the marinade ingredients in a bowl, stir well, and pour over chicken. Turn to coat, cover and let marinate in the fridge over night. (I only marinated for about 5 hours, nest time I will over night, and I reserved some to drizzled over the cooked food)

The next day, thread the chicken onto the soaked skewers, zig-zagging the meat back and forth as you go.
Cook on a preheated outdoor grill or under a hot broiler for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until lightly charred and tender. I also grilled the vegetables at the same time. Let cool slightly before serving.
