Ingredients
– 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (freshly grated or powdered)
– 1/4 cup white vinegar
– 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
– 2 teaspoons garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1-First, cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
2-Then, mix up the marinade with the grated Parmesan cheese, white vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes if you like some spice, and salt and pepper to taste.
3-Once mixed, coat the chicken pieces and let them marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes up to 12 hours for deeper flavor.
4-Preheat your grill to medium heat and thread the chicken onto skewers, soaking wooden ones first to avoid burning.
5-Grill the kebabs for about 5 minutes per side with the lid closed until they reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit inside. This keeps them tender and safe to eat. Serve them warm and watch how quickly they become a family favorite.
6-In a medium bowl, combine the 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup white vinegar, 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (if using), and salt and pepper to taste; mix well. Baste the chicken pieces on the skewers with this mixture and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 12 hours.
7-Don't forget, marinating takes 30 minutes to 12 hours, with grilling adding 10-12 minutes, so plan ahead for the best results.
