Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, oregano, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a marinade.
  2. Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
  5. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
  6. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
