Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium red onion, chopped into chunks
- 2 units bell peppers, chopped into chunks
- 8 units skewers
Directions
Step 1
Start by cutting the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground paprika, ground turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix well.
Step 3
Add the chicken cubes into the marinade and stir to coat all the pieces evenly. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.
Step 4
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.
Step 5
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 6
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion and bell peppers.
Step 7
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and has nice grill marks.
Step 8
Remove the kababs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Step 9
Serve the Paleo Chicken Kabab hot, garnished with additional lemon wedges if desired.
