Flavorful Chicken Kebabs

Ingredients

• Wooden skewers (8-10, soaked in water for 30 minutes)
• Cherry tomatoes (1 cup)
• Red onion (1 medium, cut into wedges)
• Bell peppers (2 medium, assorted colors (red, yellow, green), cut into chunks)
• Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon)
• Salt (1 teaspoon)
• Ground coriander (1 teaspoon)
• Ground cumin (1 teaspoon)
• Paprika (1 teaspoon)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Lemon juice (2 tablespoons)
• Olive oil (3 tablespoons)
• Chicken breast (1.5 pounds, cut into 1-inch cubes)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
2. Add the chicken breast cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. While the grill heats, prepare the skewers. Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto the wooden skewers, alternating between the ingredients for a colorful presentation.
5. Once the grill is ready, place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
6. Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy hot, paired with your favorite dipping sauce or served alongside a fresh salad or fragrant rice.
