Description

Deliciously marinated chicken skewers infused with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, perfect for summer grilling.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  2. Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and add to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers.
  5. Grill skewers for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  6. Serve hot with extra lemon juice or fresh herbs.

Notes

Ensure chicken is cut evenly for uniform cooking. Avoid overbaking to prevent dryness.
