Marinated Greek Chicken Skewers

Marinated Greek Chicken Skewers

Serves 4

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 4 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, divided
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1-2 tsp. dried oregano
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. ground black pepper
• 2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1/2 red onion, quartered
• 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1 inch pieces
• 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1 inch pieces

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, coat chicken in 2 Tbsp. olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Marinate 30 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 Tbsp. olive oil and lemon juice. Set aside.
2. Preheat outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat. Discard marinade and thread skewers (if using wooden, make sure to soak them in water for 20 minutes first to prevent burning) alternating chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, turning and basting occasionally with the olive oil-lemon mixture, until the chicken is just cooked through. Serve immediately.
