Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, red onion chunks for skewers
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. This is your delicious Greek marinade.
  2. Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
  3. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers. If you like, add colorful vegetables like cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, or red onion between the chicken pieces.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  6. Grill the kabobs for about 8-12 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
  7. Serve your amazing Greek Chicken Kabobs hot off the grill!

Notes

  • For the best flavor, marinate the chicken for a few hours.
  • Don’t overcook the chicken; it should be juicy and tender.
  • These kabobs are wonderful served with a side of Greek salad or tzatziki sauce.
