Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Add chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate.

  3. 3

    While the chicken is marinating, prepare the salad by mixing diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped red onion in a separate bowl.

  4. 4

    Add chopped parsley to the salad, season with salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine. Set aside.

  5. 5

    Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.

  6. 6

    Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  7. 7

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

  8. 8

    Serve the chicken skewers with the cucumber and tomato salad, garnished with lemon wedges.
