Ingredients

• 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 large Red onion
• 12 pieces Cherry tomatoes
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 tsp Fresh rosemary leaves
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 8 pieces Wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Dice the red and green bell peppers into similar 1-inch pieces and add them to the bowl.

Step 4

Peel and cut the red onion into wedges and add to the bowl with the chicken and peppers.

Step 5

Add the cherry tomatoes to the bowl as well.

Step 6

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Pour the marinade over the chicken and vegetables, tossing to ensure everything is evenly coated.

Step 8

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to soak up the flavors.

Step 9

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 10

Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, onions, and cherry tomatoes onto the soaked skewers, alternating between ingredients for a colorful presentation.

Step 11

Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and shows grill marks.

Step 12

Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 13

Serve your Heart-Healthy Brochette Poulet warm, and enjoy!
