Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need
- 500g Chicken Breast (cubed)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- Salt & Pepper (to taste)
- Wooden skewers
We recommend marinating the chicken with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. These ingredients provide a balance of acidity, spice, and flavor to our grilled chicken. You can substitute paprika with chili powder if you prefer a spicier kebab. Also, ensure to soak your wooden skewers in water before use to prevent them from burning on the grill.
How To Make Grilled Chicken Kebabs
- First, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- Next, thread the chicken onto each skewer, leaving a small space at the bottom for easy handling.
- Then, preheat your grill to medium heat and grill the kebabs for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through.
