Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 large yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch rounds
- 8 units wooden skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the grill.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the cubed chicken and stir to coat. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into 1-inch pieces.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the chicken cubes and vegetable pieces onto the soaked skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables to ensure even cooking.
Place the skewers on the heated grill, closing the lid. Grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
Remove the brochettes from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Whole30 Grilled Chicken Brochette with your favorite Whole30 compliant sides or salads.
