Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 medium red onion
• 2 large bell peppers
• 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 2

Dice the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes, ensuring even sizes for consistent cooking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 4

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, coating them thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 5

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Cut the red onion and bell peppers into 1-inch pieces.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken cubes and vegetable pieces alternately onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the preheated grill, cooking for about 10-15 minutes. Turn the skewers occasionally to ensure even cooking on all sides.

Step 9

Check the chicken for doneness; it should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

Step 10

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

Step 11

Serve the Paleo Kebab Chicken with your favorite Paleo-friendly side dishes or salads.
