Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cubed into 1-inch cubes, about 1 ½ lbs)
- ½ onion (optional)
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
- 3 cloves garlic (crushed)
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Steps
-
In a medium bowl or freezer bag, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken (and onion if using) and toss well to coat.
-
Refrigerate and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
-
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
-
Remove the chicken from the marinade allowing excess to drip off. Discard the marinade and thread the chicken (and onion if using) onto skewers.
-
Preheat a grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat. Add the skewers, turning frequently, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and reaches 165°F.
