Marinade and Chicken

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Cut the boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Mix until the chicken is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers.

  4. 4

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with a fresh salad on the side.
