These Greek-inspired shish kebabs are a nice change from ordinary grilled chicken. They are excellent served with pita bread, garlicky tzatziki, and a Greek salad. Lamb can be substituted for chicken, and many variations of vegetables can be used.

Ingredients

0.25 cups olive oil
0.25 cups lemon juice
0.25 cups white vinegar
2 cloves garlic , minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
0.25 teaspoons salt
0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 pounds skinless , boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
6 woodens skewers
2 large green or red bell peppers , cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large onion , quartered and separated into pieces
12 cherrys tomatoes
12 freshs mushrooms

Instructions

1

Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
2

Meanwhile, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before use.
3

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
4

Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess liquid; discard remaining marinade. Alternately thread chicken with bell peppers, onion, tomatoes, and mushrooms onto the skewers.
5

Cook skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently, until nicely browned on all sides and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
