• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 12 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the wooden skewers 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.

Step 3

Core and slice the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces.

Step 4

Cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick slices and the red onion into 1-inch chunks.

Step 5

Mince the garlic. Finely chop the parsley, thyme, and rosemary.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the herb marinade.

Step 7

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Step 9

Thread the marinated chicken, bell pepper, zucchini, and onion alternately onto the skewers.

Step 10

Grill the skewers for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a slight char on the outside.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Savory Grilled Skewers!
