{made it} Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Kabobs

Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Kabobs
*Serves 3

A delicious and light weeknight meal.

INGREDIENTS

3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil


Zest of 1 lemon


3 cloves minced garlic

1 tsp. minced dried parsley


1 tsp. kosher salt


½ tsp. ground black pepper


2-3 large skinless chicken breasts, cut into ¾-inch pieces

DIRECTIONS

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and mix to coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
2. Prepare a medium fire in a grill.  If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes before use.
3. Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers and discard the excess marinade.  Lightly oil the grill grates.  Place the kabobs on the grill, cover, and cook until the chicken is opaque throughout, about 8-12 minutes, turning once or twice during cooking.
