Grilled Lemon Garlic Chicken Skewers
This recipe is so simple, even your pet goldfish could probably manage it (if they had hands, of course). We’re talking juicy chicken, zesty lemon, and aromatic garlic bringing together a flavor explosion you’ll wanna dive into headfirst.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (like squeezing a fruit bomb!)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced (or 5, if you’ve got a serious garlic obsession)
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (because lemony is the way to be)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (a little sprinkle of magic)
- Salt and pepper to taste (or a hefty pinch if you’re feeling wild)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (because we eat with our eyes first)
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined. You’ll want to smell this goodness!
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss them around like they’re at a pool party. Cover the bowl and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. If you have the time, letting it chill in the fridge for a couple of hours works its magic too!
- Once your chicken is suitably marinated, thread the delicious chunks onto skewers. If you’re using wooden skewers, don’t forget to soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning. Nobody likes a charred skewer unless you’re going for that “extra crispy” look!
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. The perfect temperature to make those chicken pieces sizzle like they’re on a summer vacation!
- Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has those beautiful grill marks and a hint of fabulous charriness.
- Once cooked, take them off the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Then sprinkle the skewers with fresh parsley before devouring them with a side of glee!
These Grilled Lemon Garlic Chicken Skewers are not just food; they’re an experience! Enjoy them with friends, family, or even just binge-watching your favorite show. Either way, you’re in for a treat that’s bound to tickle your taste buds.
