Grilled Garlic Chicken Skewers are a delightful and flavorful dish perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a casual family dinner or a festive backyard barbecue. These skewers combine tender pieces of marinated chicken with a robust garlic flavor, offering a delicious and healthy meal option that is sure to please everyone.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:
    • In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
    • Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, making sure they are well-coated.
    • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  2. Preheat the Grill:
    • If using a charcoal grill, light the coals and let them burn until covered with white ash.
    • If using a gas grill, preheat to medium-high heat.
  3. Prepare the Skewers:
    • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
    • Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
  4. Grill the Skewers:
    • Place the skewers on the preheated grill.
    • Grill for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
  5. Serve:
    • Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
    • Serve hot with your favorite sides like grilled vegetables, salad, or rice.

Enjoy your Grilled Garlic Chicken Skewers!
