Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken breasts or thighs
- 60 ml Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Red onion, cut into wedges
- 2 Bell peppers (any color), cut into chunks
- 1 Zucchini, sliced

Instructions
Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes, red onion wedges, bell pepper chunks, and zucchini slices alternately onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.
Grill the skewers for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Remove skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the skewers warm with your favorite keto-friendly side dishes.
