Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 zucchini
• 1 onion
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 0.5 cup fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
• 3 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 bamboo skewers

Directions

Step 1

Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.

Step 3

Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and onion into 1-inch pieces.

Step 4

In a blender or food processor, combine olive oil, parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the marinade is smooth.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the chicken and vegetables. Pour the herb marinade over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.

Step 6

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken pieces and vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating pieces of chicken, bell pepper, zucchini, and onion.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the grill. Grill for 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve warm, and enjoy your Whole30 savory grilled skewers!
