Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Chop the 2 zucchinis, 2 bell peppers, and 1 red onion into 1-inch pieces; add to the bowl with the 8 oz mushrooms.

  3. Step 3

    In a small bowl, whisk the 3 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the marinade over the chicken and vegetables; toss to coat evenly. Let sit for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill to medium-high.

  5. Step 5

    Thread the chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces and leaving a small gap between each.

  6. Step 6

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

  7. Step 7

    Rest the skewers for 5 minutes before serving; squeeze extra lemon over if desired.
