Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 12 slices thick-cut bacon
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large green bell pepper
- 1 large red onion
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Cut the bacon slices in half crosswise. For each chicken cube, wrap a half-slice of bacon around it and set aside.
Chop the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Thread the items onto skewers, alternating between the wrapped chicken, vegetables, and onion pieces. Repeat until all ingredients are used up.
Brush the assembled kabobs with the olive oil seasoning mixture on all sides.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or prepare a grill pan over the stovetop.
Grill the kabobs for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the bacon is crispy.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as an appetizer or a main dish with your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
