Moroccan Chicken Skewers with Grilled Vegetables

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Chicken breast
• 2 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Bell peppers (various colors)
• 1 medium Red onion
• 4 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Lemon juice
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Ginger
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 1/2 tsp Turmeric
• 1/2 tsp Coriander
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black pepper

Instructions

1. 1Cut the 1.5 lbs of chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.
2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 3 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of grated ginger, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of coriander, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
3. 3Add the 1.5 lbs of chicken cubes to the marinade and toss well to ensure every piece is coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
4. 4While the chicken marinates, cut the 2 medium zucchini, 2 medium bell peppers, and 1 medium red onion into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1-inch in size.
5. 5Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, which is approximately 400-450°F (200-230°C).
6. 6Thread the marinated chicken cubes and the cut vegetables onto skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.
7. 7Lightly brush the assembled skewers with any remaining marinade from the bowl.
8. 8Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F or 74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
