Ingredients

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 12 oz), cut into chunks
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 large red onion, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
Wooden or metal skewers

Directions

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the chicken chunks to the marinade and coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using an indoor grill pan, you can preheat that as well.
While the grill is heating up, prepare your skewers by alternating the marinated chicken chunks, bell pepper chunks, and onion chunks onto each skewer.
Lightly grease the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Place the assembled skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender and slightly charred.
Once the skewers are done, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
Serve the grilled chicken skewers with a side salad or some cauliflower rice for a complete low-carb, high-protein meal.
