Time: 45 min (excluding marinating)
Difficulty: easy
- 600 gr chicken breast, cut into cubes
- 2 lemons, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp. fresh chives, chopped
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Skewers (wood, soaked in water for at least 30 min to prevent burning)
1. Marinade
In a bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, parsley, chives, thyme, salt and pepper. Add the diced chicken and toss well to coat all the pieces. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
2. Basting skewers
Alternately thread a piece of chicken and a slice of lemon onto the skewer soaked in water. Repeat until the skewer is full, but leave some space at both ends.
3. Grilling and serving
Heat the barbecue to about 180°C. Place the skewers on the grill and grill for about 10-12 minutes until done. Turn regularly. The lemon may caramelize slightly. Serve the skewers immediately, with a fresh salad if desired.
