Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 20 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 large red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 10 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside in a bowl.
Prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix well.
Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate the chicken for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
Cut the red onion into 1-inch pieces, trying to keep them in layers for easy skewering.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes, cherry tomatoes, and red onion pieces alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers. Each skewer should have a balance of ingredients for even cooking.
Place the kabobs onto the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). The vegetables should be slightly charred and softened.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Mini Tomato Onion Chicken Kabobs warm as an appetizer, snack, or part of a main course. Enjoy!
