Ingredients
- 500 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast

- 3 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 large green bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 large red onion, cut into chunks

Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt.
Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and toss until evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thread the marinated chicken, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini alternately onto skewers.
Place the skewers on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, turning halfway through cooking.
Remove the kebabs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish the kebabs with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your heart-healthy roasted chicken kebabs as a main dish with a side salad or whole grain pita.
