Preparation steps
Rinse the potatoes and cook covered in salted water for 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes, peel and cut in half.
While the potatoes cook, rinse the lemon and pat dry. Finely grate 2 teaspoons lemon peel, cut lemon in half and squeeze the juice.
Rinse thyme, pat dry and pluck the leaves.
Mix lemon juice and zest with honey, oil and thyme leaves stir to make a marinade.
Cut chicken breast into 3 cm (approximately 1 1/4 inch) cubes. Add meat and potatoes to the marinade in a freezer bag and marinate at least 1 hour.
Thread meat and potatoes on wooden skewers and season with salt and pepper just before grilling. Place skewers on a aluminum grill pan on the grill for about 10 minutes, turning frequently to brown all sides.
