Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 large bell peppers (red, yellow, green, or orange)
• 1 large red onion
• 2 medium zucchini
• 0.25 cups olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons chili flakes (optional for spice)
• 8 pieces wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and set aside in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Wash the bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini. Cut them into similar 1-inch pieces to match the size of the chicken cubes.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes (if using).

Step 5

Pour the marinade over the cubed chicken and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Step 6

Thread the marinated chicken cubes, bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini alternately onto the skewers to create vibrant, colorful kabobs.

Step 7

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Place the kabobs on the preheated grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes to ensure even cooking and a nice char on all sides. Check that the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

Step 9

Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite sides such as rice, salad, or a refreshing tzatziki sauce.
