Juicy chicken marinated in bright lemon and fresh herbs, skewered with colorful vegetables and grilled to perfection.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh oregano, chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 large red onion, chunked
  • 2 bell peppers, chunked
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  • Whisk together marinade ingredients. Add chicken and marinate 2+ hours.
  • Thread chicken, onion, peppers, and lemon slices onto skewers.
  • Grill on medium-high heat (375-400°F) for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
