Greek Island Chicken Shish Kebabs

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon bio-salt (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
  • 6 wooden skewers
  • 2 large green or green peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large zucchini cut into pieces
  • 6 green onion cut into thirds
  • 12 fresh mushrooms

Directions:

  • Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl.
  • Add the chicken and toss to evenly coat.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes before use.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess liquid. Discard the remaining marinade. Alternately thread pieces of the marinated chicken with vegetable pieces onto the skewers.
  • Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides, and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes.
  • Serve with mixed green salad or over cauli rice.
