Remembering Puerto Rican Chicken Skewers, One Year After Hurricane Maria, FOOD 52, 2018
Before I knew it, my mom had hopped out of the rental car and power-walked toward the trailer. When the vendor saw us, he pulled a couple of pre-marinated chicken skewers out of his Cambro food carrier and set them over the grill. The chicken danced and sizzled as it turned Hawaiian Tropic gold. Then, he slathered the skewers in that quintessential Puerto Rican guava BBQ sauce, whose sugars immediately started to caramelize and pop, lacquering the chicken. He removed the glazed skewers from the grill, placed a slice of French bread on top of each, and handed them to us.
