Ingredients
Instructions
Marinate the chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Prepare the skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes. Thread marinated chicken, bell pepper chunks, and onion pieces onto skewers, alternating between protein and vegetables.
Grill the kebabs
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cook kebabs for 12-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables have nice char marks.
Serve
Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes. Serve immediately with a fresh salad or tzatziki sauce if desired.
