Greek Chicken Kabobs!
Chicken is one of my
favorite meals. There are so many ways you can cook chicken, the options are
endless. Of course one of my favorite ways is the healthy way. I am not a fan
of sauce (other than BBQ) and I don't think it is necessary when just a little
bit of seasoning can go a long way. Besides, if you add sauces and fry up some
chicken you totally lose out on the amazing nutritional benefits of chicken.
Chicken is low in fat, VERY high in protein (a single serving of chicken breast
has 22grams of protein), and low in carbs. Combine the health benefits with
this great recipe and you will have an amazing guilt-free meal you will love!
What you'll need:
1-2 pounds of boneless, skinless
chicken breast
1-2 Whole Lemons (depending on size)
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Garlic
Oregano
Instructions:
1.) Preheat your grill to the desired
setting.
2.) Cut chicken into 1 1/2 inch thick
cubes.
3. In a bowl pour 1/2-1 cup of olive
oil (the amount of olive oil you will use will vary depending on how large the
bowl is, but it should be enough to cover the chicken.
Add 1/2-1 lemon, and salt,
pepper and garlic to taste.
5.) Toss chicken into the olive oil
and lemon mix and let sit for 15 minutes.
6.) Place chicken on kabob skewers.
7.) Squeeze the remaining lemon juice
over the chicken.
8.) Sprinkle the oregano over the
kabobs.
9.) Cook 15 minutes rotating every 5
minutes. If you need to cook longer then do so.
This meal is: Carb Friendly, Low-Fat, High Protein, Low Sodium and DELICIOUS :)
