Chicken Kabob Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast cut into cubes and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Skewers

    Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, skip this step.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Kabobs

    Thread marinated chicken cubes, bell peppers, and onion chunks onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.

  4. 4

    Grill the Kabobs

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  5. 5

    Cook the Rice

    In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 2 cups of rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the grilled chicken kabobs over a bed of rice. Enjoy your meal!
