Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Cut the chicken or beef into 1-inch cubes. If using different types of meat, prepare them separately as cooking times may vary.
Chop the red and yellow bell peppers and red onion into similar-sized pieces to the meat for even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the cubed meat to the marinade, toss to coat thoroughly, and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes. For best results, marinate in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated meat, bell peppers, and onion pieces alternately onto the soaked skewers, leaving enough space at each end of the skewers for handling.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning them occasionally to brown on all sides until the meat is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled meat skewers hot with your favorite side dishes or a dipping sauce.
