Marinade

Method

Preparation of Marinade

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until well combined.

Marinating Chicken

  1. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the cubed chicken breasts to the marinade. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.

Preparing Skewers

  1. 3

    Prepare the Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, they are ready to use.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Kebabs

    Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini onto the skewers, alternating the ingredients for a colorful presentation.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Grill the Kebabs

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

  2. 6

    Check for Doneness

    Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Kebabs

    Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite side dishes or sauces.
