Mediterranean Lemon-Herb Chicken Skewers

Tender chicken breast marinated in a bright, zesty Mediterranean blend of lemon, garlic, and fresh herbs, then grilled to perfection. Served with a fresh Greek salad and pita for a light, flavorful family meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 4 small pita bread

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large resealable bag or shallow bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken cubes and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
