Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
Cut the chicken breast and beef sirloin into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
Chop the red bell peppers, green bell peppers, red onions, and zucchinis into pieces similar in size to the meat cubes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic cloves, ground black pepper, paprika, cumin, and oregano to prepare the marinade.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the marinade. Mix well.
Divide the marinade equally between two separate bowls.
Place the chicken cubes in one bowl of marinade and the beef cubes in the other. Toss to ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken, beef, bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini alternately onto the soaked skewers.
Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the kebabs on the grill.
Grill for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and the vegetables are slightly charred.
Remove from the grill and allow the kebabs to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a main dish, accompanied by a side of fresh salad or whole grain pita.
