Trader Joe’s Sunday coming in HOT with these Spicy Moroccan Chicken Kebabs and Cauliflower Israeli Cous Cous🔥 To be honest, I REALLY didn’t feel like cooking today. I ate terrible all weekend, takeout was yelling my name, and Trader Joe’s seemed to be out of everything I needed. So, I worked with what I had in my kitchen along with some new items I’m trying from TJ’s and it’s one of the best meals I’ve made yet! Sometimes not being lazy pays off!

Marinate chicken breast cut into bite size pieces in cilantro or parsley, ginger paste or fresh ginger, garlic, Harissa (found at Trader Joe’s/use less for less spice), zest and juice from 1/2 lemon, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika and salt. Marinate for about 30 minutes to an hour then cut into bite size pieces and grill! This can also work on a cast iron skillet, regular skillet or oven.
