Marinade

Chicken and Vegetables

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.

  2. 2

    Prepare Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well until combined.

  3. 3

    Marinate Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and add them to the marinade. Ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for best flavor.

  4. 4

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting them into similar-sized chunks to ensure even cooking.

Grilling

  1. 5

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 6

    Assemble Kebabs

    Once the chicken has marinated, thread the chicken and vegetable pieces onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.

  3. 7

    Grill Kebabs

    Place the assembled kebabs on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks, and the vegetables are tender.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or side.
