I used diced chicken breast and marinated overnight and the flavour was fantastic! Something I really liked was because the marinade doesn't have a lot of liquid it tends to stick to the meat so the wonderful flavour of the herbs and spices isn't lost during cooking.

FT, your recipes have never let me down, but this is by far an absolute winner! Loved the blend of spices.. and the flavours. I can't get hold of fresh bay leaves here, so used dried instead and skewered a few torn leaves in between the chicken pieces as well. I served them with red onion salad and pita bread (not exactly Spanish I suppose!). Thank you, FT, for sharing this wonderful recipe.

So easy to prepare with high impact flavors that one generally thinks of with more complicated recipes. My skewers were made with chicken and marinated for about 10 hours. Since this dish is all about the spices, the success really depends on the freshness of your herbs and spices. Served mine for lunch with sauteed spinach with garlic and golden raisins (another Spanish tapas classic). Thanks FT!

Outstanding! I used chicken breasts and marinated for about six hours, the flavour was delicious, every bite was yummy. I followed the recipe as written but was so excited to eat it, I forgot to garnish it with coriander. Thank you French Tart

superb!!!! I used buffalo meat and it was so tender and flavorful. Made the whole pound too shock and am still eating it. The only thing i suggest is that if you use red meat then add a little extra saffron. Otherwise it gets lost. With chicken it won't.

Another wonderful meal! Thank you. I love recipes like this that are so easy and the reward so great. I used lamb and marinaded overnight. I love the fennel in this blend - not overpowering at all. I will make this over & over again. Made for Aussie Swap #21.

My kids especially loved this recipe. I marinated the chicken pieces all day, they were fantastic. They almost didn't make it to dinner, we had to keep "sampling". The kids loved that they could eat them with their fingers. I served this with grilled veggies of peppers, onions and zucchini, slices of avacado and tortillas. Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

So easy and so good. I marinaded for 5 hours...prep was quick and easy, I did it on my lunch break from work. Then came home and fired up my grill, and 30 minutes later, dinner was ready! I used chicken, and the spices were perfect with it. Made this for ZWT5!
