Ingredients
  • Marinade:
  • 2 tbs. chopped walnuts
  • 2 medium garlic cloves
  • 1 1/2 cups loosely packed fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup fresh Italian parsley
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 2 pounds chicken tenders
  • 1 lime, cut in wedges

Directions
  1. In a food processer, finely chop the walnuts and garlic. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the cilantro, parsley, salt, pepper and process until finely chopped. With the motor running, drizzle oil in to create a smooth puree. Place chicken in a large resealable bag and add the marinade. Press out air and seal. Turn the bag to evenly distribute the marinade. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
  2. Remove chicken and thread onto skewers. Grill over high heat until the meat is firm and juices run clear, 6-8 mins., turning once. Serve warm with lime wedges.
