Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 Green bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 Red onion, cut into chunks
- 8 Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into even 1-inch cubes for consistent cooking and place them into a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, make the marinade by mixing together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, ground cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the bell peppers and onion into large chunks.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are white-hot.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces, red and green bell peppers, and onion chunks alternatively onto the soaked wooden skewers.
Place the skewers onto the preheated grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and slightly charred on all sides.
Remove from the grill and let the kebabs rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the sugar-free grilled chicken kebabs warm, alone or with your choice of side dishes such as salad or grilled vegetables.
