Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 red onion, cut into chunks
• 1 bell pepper, cut into chunks
• 8 wooden skewers, soaked in water

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Cut the boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces, about 1.5-inch cubes.

Step 3

Add the chicken pieces to the bowl with the marinade, tossing to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 5

While the oven is preheating, thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion and bell pepper.

Step 6

Place the skewers on a roasting rack set over a baking sheet to catch any drips.

Step 7

Roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a slightly charred appearance. Turn the skewers halfway through cooking for even roasting.

Step 8

Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve the paleo roasted chicken kebabs with your favorite paleo-friendly side dishes.
