Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Boneless skinless chicken breast
• 2 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 large Zucchini
• 1 large Red onion
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.

Step 2

Chop the red bell peppers into 1-inch squares. Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds, and cut the red onion into chunks similar in size to the peppers.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Pour the marinade over the chicken cubes in the bowl. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours for best flavor.

Step 5

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken, red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating between the ingredients as you prefer.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your Whole30 Classic Shish Kebab with a side of your favorite Whole30 compliant salad or cauliflower rice.
