Marinate the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and add them to the marinade. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for better flavor.

Soak Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

Prepare the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
