Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 300 grams Brussels sprouts
• 4 pieces garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 6 pieces wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes (about 1 inch).

Step 2

Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts, removing any tough outer leaves.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves finely.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

Step 5

Add the cubed chicken and halved Brussels sprouts to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

Step 6

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken and Brussels sprouts onto the skewers, alternating between the two to create a visually appealing pattern.

Step 8

Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) if baking.

Step 9

Cook the skewers on the grill, turning occasionally, for about 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and has an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F). If baking, place the skewers on a baking sheet lined with foil and grill/bake for the same amount of time, turning halfway through.

Step 10

Once cooked, remove the skewers from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or over a bed of rice or salad for a complete meal.
