Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 Green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 Red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
• 8 Wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 2

Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 4

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and toss well to ensure all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more intense flavor.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 6

While the grill heats, thread the marinated chicken cubes, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto the skewers, alternating ingredients as desired.

Step 7

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious grilled chicken kabobs with a side of choice.
