Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
• 3 pieces garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 large bell peppers
• 1 large red onion
• 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, begin by soaking them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and set aside in a large bowl.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Pour the herb marinade over the chicken cubes, mixing until all pieces are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Step 5

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch squares and the red onion into similar-sized chunks.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating between pieces of chicken and vegetables.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve the skewers hot with your favorite Paleo side dishes.
