Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2–3 garlic cloves (crushed)
- 2 tsp fresh thyme
- 2 tsp rosemary
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 4 large chicken breasts (skinless, boneless)
- Wooden skewers (soaked in boiling water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl.
- Slice the chicken into bite-sized chunks and place them in a separate bowl.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken, cover it, and let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor.
- After marinating, thread the chicken onto soaked wooden skewers or metal skewers.
- Heat an outdoor grill or stovetop grill pan. Cook the skewers, turning every 3-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown on all sides.
- Remove from the heat and let the skewers rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For best results, marinate the chicken longer for deeper flavors. Feel free to mix in other herbs or add vegetables to the skewers.
