Instructions

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes. In a bowl, toss the chicken with 1/2 tbsp olive oil, cumin, cinnamon, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.

While the chicken marinates, prepare the relish. In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped dried apricots, roughly chopped slivered almonds, chopped cilantro, and lemon juice. Stir in the remaining 1/2 tbsp olive oil. Set aside.

Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to use to prevent burning).

Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred.

Serve the grilled chicken skewers immediately, topped with the almond-apricot relish.
