Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into 1-inch cubes. Slice the 2 bell peppers and 2 carrots into 1-inch pieces.

  2. Step 2

    In a bowl, toss the chicken, peppers, and carrots with the 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, and 1 tsp salt until evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Thread the chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  4. Step 4

    Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are charred at the edges.

  5. Step 5

    Serve hot, with extra salt or a squeeze of lemon if desired.
