Ingredients

• 2 pieces skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 medium red onion
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Begin by soaking your wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the skinless, boneless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 3

Chop the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into similar-sized pieces as the chicken.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and mix until each piece is thoroughly coated.

Step 6

Next, add the chopped vegetables to the bowl and gently toss to combine with the marinade.

Step 7

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Thread the chicken and vegetable pieces alternately onto the soaked skewers, ensuring not to overcrowd each skewer.

Step 9

Place the skewers on the hot grill, cooking each side for about 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

Step 10

Serve the Low Fat Brochette Poulet hot, alongside a fresh salad or whole grain of your choice for a complete meal.
