I will answer all of them.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!! SHISH TAWOOK MENU!!!

Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mothers that cook, clean, work, teach and help maintain families and households everyday of the year!!! If you want to put together a good Mediterranean Mother's Day Dinner, a good menu would be chicken (shish tawook style), hummus, garlic, batata harra and tabouli. For shish tawook it's a very easy recipe, cut into cubes some boneless chicken breast with out the skin. Marinate it in a mixture of 1 tsp tomato paste, 1 tsp ketchup, 3 cloves garlic minced, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper. Marinate the chicken for about 1-3 hours then heat up a pan and pour in about 3 tbs olive oil, then put the chicken in and let it cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes total. Or if you'd like you can skewer the chicken and grill it, drizzle some olive oil on the chicken skewers before placing them on the grill. I'm sure your mother will enjoy this dinner!
