Can You Spring for Another Chicken Dish?

One chicken dish served two ways
Moroccan Grilled Chicken Kebabs

Cook's notes: A tasty grilled skewered chicken marinated in a Moroccan style spice blend. Serve the chicken over saffron rice with fresh pineapple pieces.  Recipe serves 2-4  and was adapted from closetcooking.com
Note the recipe did call for pita bread to be more authentic but I had to substitute flour tortillas which was all I had available. The substitution worked fine.  
Cooking tip: I grilled skewered meat on lightly greased foil piece rather than directly on grill.
Ingredients:

• 1 lb. boneless chicken breast, cut into large chunks
• 2 TB. fresh lemon juice
• 2 TB. olive oil or Lemon Olive Oil
• 1/2 tsp. each paprika, cumin and oregano
• 1/8 tsp. each cinnamon, ginger, turmeric and cayenne pepper
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• red onion chunks
• tomato chunks
• large slices of sliced zucchini

Directions:

• Mix all ingredients except chicken in a bowl. Add chicken and coat evenly. Cover lightly and refrigerate to marinate at least 20 minutes or several hours.   
• Skewer the chicken with zucchini pieces, tomato, red onion and zucchini
• Grill over medium heat about 10 minutes a side. Turn once.
