Ingredients
Method
- In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- About 30 minutes before cooking, remove chicken from refrigerator to come to room temperature. Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Thread chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving small spaces between pieces for even cooking.
- Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Grill skewers for 5-6 minutes per side, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Remove from grill and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
For extra flavor, reserve 2 tablespoons of marinade before adding raw chicken to use for basting during grilling. Chicken can be marinated up to 24 hours in advance. If using metal skewers, no soaking required. Leftovers keep in refrigerator for 3 days.
