Chicken Shish Taouk (The Best)
Ingredients
- 3 garlic cloves, quartered (about 15 g)
- 2 egg whites
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 ½ cups (375 ml) canola oil
- 3 tbsp (45 ml) water
- 3 tbsp (45 ml) 35% cream
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) canola oil
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice
- ¼ tsp Lebanese seven-spice powder (see note)
- ¼ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 ½ lb (675 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 3 breasts)
Instructions
- In a tall, narrow container, place the garlic, egg whites, lemon juice and salt. Using a hand blender, purée the ingredients until smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in 1 cup (250 ml) of the oil. In less than 1 minute, the mixture will resemble mayonnaise. With the machine still running, add the water alternating with the remaining oil. Remove 1/3 cup (75 ml) of the sauce for the marinade. Refrigerate the remaining sauce in an airtight container.
