Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about
- 4 ounces each), all visible fat removed

- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 medium cloves garlic, minced, or
- 1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions
- Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Put chicken smooth side up between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a tortilla press or smooth side of a meat mallet, lightly flatten chicken. Cut each piece lengthwise into 8 long strips.
- In a small nonmetallic bowl, whisk together marinade ingredients. Put marinade and chiken in an airtight plastic bag and turn bag to coat. Seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 8 hours, turning bag occasionally.
- Meanwhile, soak 32 wooden skewers in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
