Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breast
- 2 medium bell peppers
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 medium red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Core and cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces.
Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Peel and cut the red onion into 1-inch chunks.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the cubed chicken and all the vegetables to the marinade. Toss until all pieces are well coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and has grill marks.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon.
