Asian Chicken Skewers

We tried out a new recipe this weekend. I got it from the trusted Babycenter Cooking for your Family Board. I am very rarely disappointed when I head to this board in search of a new recipe!

Everyone at my house loved this! OK, my self made vegetarian son did not, but I never count his vote when there is meat involved. He just wont even touch it.

As you can tell from my picture, I left them as whole breasts. I did not have skewers and I was not going back to the store for some! I let them marinade for over a hour and then grilled them. I did not use the cilantro leaves because I was out and again...I was NOT going back to the store today!
