Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 4 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Red onion, cut into wedges
- 12 Wooden skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Cut the boneless skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, paprika, ground cumin, black pepper, and kosher salt until well combined.
Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours for best results.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers, alternating with pieces of red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion.
Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking on all sides. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and is nicely charred on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the juicy grilled chicken kebabs with your favorite sides.
