Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb chicken breast
  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 2 medium bell pepper
  • 1 large red onion
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium lemon
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.

  2. 2

    Chop the 2 zucchinis, 2 bell peppers, and 1 red onion into 1-inch pieces; add to the bowl with the 8 oz mushrooms.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk the 3 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Pour the marinade over the chicken and vegetables; toss to coat evenly. Let sit for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill to medium-high.

  5. 5

    Thread the chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces and leaving a small gap between each.

  6. 6

    Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are charred at the edges.

  7. 7

    Rest the skewers for 5 minutes before serving; squeeze extra lemon over if desired.
