Method
Kebab Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
- 2
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the boneless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
- 3
Soak Wooden Skewers
While the chicken marinates, soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Assemble Skewers
After marinating, thread the chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
