Chicken Dukkah Skewers with Balsamic-Honey Glaze

Chicken Dukkah Skewers with Balsamic-Honey Glaze

Dukkah is an Egyptian spice mix consisting of toasted hazelnuts, sesame seeds, dried mint, coriander, cumin, fennel seeds, black peppercorns, and is traditionally served as a dip with bread There are a lot of variations, but I think it is delicious.  The first time I had it was in San Francisco as a dipping sauce for bread and it was mixed with olive oil and was complex taste and really tasty.  I found this recipe for an appetizer and you coat chicken pieces with Dijon mustard and dip the skewers in the dukkah mixture and grill.  You reduce balsamic vinegar and honey to make a glaze that you drizzle over the cooked chicken or you can put it in a bowl and use it as a dipping sauce.  I put a piece of foil under the wooden skewers so they don’t go up in flames on the  grill.  You can find the spice mix at good gourmet stores, but it is quick to make.  Click here for the recipe….
