Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless chicken breast
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch slices
• 1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the boneless chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes and toss to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked skewers, alternating with pieces of red bell pepper, zucchini, and onion for each skewer.

Step 7

Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve the skewers hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
