Marinade and Chicken Skewers
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken thighs and ensure they are well-coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Assemble the Skewers
Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between the chicken and vegetables.
