- 1 large lemon, juiced & zested
- 2 cloves garlic, grated*
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano*
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 lbs of chicken breasts, cubed

- Add the cubed chicken breasts to the marinade, and seal. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to 4 hours.
- Tip: while the chicken marinades, this is a great time to soak your wooden skewers (if using).
Assemble the skewers:

Notes
- Use 1 teaspoon garlic powder if you don’t have whole cloves.
- You can swap it with 1 tablespoon of fresh oregano.
