💡 Tip: Do not let the bitter orange juice sit too long, so the chicken texture stays intact. Because bitter orange juice is strong, 25 minutes of resting is enough for these skewers; if you wait longer, the chicken surface may soften too much.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with lavash, roasted peppers, and onion salad.
