- 2
Add the cubed chicken breast to the marinade, tossing to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours, to allow the flavors to meld.
Aşçının notu: For best flavor, marinate for at least 1 hour.

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with cherry tomatoes, red onion, and bell pepper if using.
Yaklaşık 10 dk.

Grill the skewers for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice char marks.
Yaklaşık 15 dk.

Aşçının notu: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
