Zesty Grilled Lemon Garlic Chicken Kebabs
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 unit Zest of 1 lemon
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 Prise Salt (to taste)
- 1 Prise Pepper (to taste)
- 1 unit red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 unit green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 unit Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor).
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Thread the marinated chicken, red and green bell peppers, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating the ingredients for a colorful presentation.
- Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
💡 Chef's Notes
Serve the kebabs on a platter garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro, alongside a lemon wedge for an extra zesty touch.
