A delicious and flavorful Greek-inspired chicken dish perfect for barbecues or quick dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Cut the chicken into cubes and add them to the marinade.
  3. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for more flavor.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers.
  5. Grill or broil the skewers until the chicken is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
