Perfecting the Cooking Process
To achieve the best results with these wonderfully wacky skewers, sear the chicken first to lock in the juices. While the chicken is resting, prep your “eyeballs” and assemble the skewers. This sequence ensures everything cooks evenly and tastes fantastic.
Add Your Touch
Want to get even more creative? Consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the chicken for a deeper flavor. You could also swap out the regular salami for a spicy version to give your skewered chicken salami eyeballs a fiery kick. Get wild!
Storing & Reheating
If you have any leftover skewered chicken salami eyeballs (unlikely, but possible!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To reheat, gently warm them in a pan or microwave, being careful not to dry out the chicken.
Here are a few helpful tips for creating the most spooktacular skewers:
- To prevent the chicken from drying out, marinate it for at least 30 minutes before threading it onto the skewers. A flavorful marinade makes all the difference.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the skewers; this allows the chicken and salami to cook evenly. Give each piece some breathing room for the best texture.
- For extra flavor, brush the skewers with a tangy vinaigrette during the last few minutes of cooking. This creates a beautiful glaze and enhances the taste.
(Personal anecdote formated as paragraph subheading)
I remember making these for a Halloween party once, and the kids went absolutely bonkers for them! They thought the salami eyeballs were hilarious, and the skewers were gone in minutes.

Skewered chicken salami eyeballs
Delicious skewered chicken salami eyeballs recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.
- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
- Chicken salami slices: 1 package (approx. 6 ounces)
- Small mozzarella balls (bocconcini): 12
- Black olives (pitted): 6
- Cream cheese: 2 tablespoons
- Chives: 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
- Red pepper flakes: 1/4 teaspoon (optional, for "bloodshot" effect)
- Wooden skewers: 6
Instructions
- Step 1: Cut each mozzarella ball in half. These will be the "whites" of the eyeballs.
- Step 2: Cut the black olives in half. Place one olive half, cut-side up, onto the center of each mozzarella half to create the "pupils." Secure with a tiny dab of cream cheese if needed.
- Step 3: Spread a thin layer of cream cheese over each salami slice.
- Step 4: Carefully wrap each salami slice around two mozzarella "eyeballs," shaping it gently to resemble a rounded eyeball. You can use a toothpick to secure them temporarily if needed.
- Step 5: Skewer two "eyeballs" onto each wooden skewer.
- Step 6: Garnish with finely chopped chives and a tiny sprinkle of red pepper flakes (if using) for added visual effect. Serve immediately.
