Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them into a large bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground black pepper, dried oregano, paprika, ground cumin, and onion powder to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C).
While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables. Cut the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion into 1-inch pieces.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion pieces alternately onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
Place the kebabs on the grill or in a preheated oven on a baking sheet.
Roast the kebabs for about 15 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender. The chicken should have an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the kebabs from the grill or oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve warm, and enjoy your low sodium roasted chicken kebabs.
