Ingredients
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts boneless, skinless, and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 8 wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes
- 4 pita breads for serving
- Preferred toppings like sliced tomatoes, red onions, sliced cucumbers, and tzatziki sauce (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.
- Add the chicken pieces to the bowl, tossing to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the flavors blend.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high (about 400°F). Thread the marinated chicken onto the soaked wooden skewers. Grill the chicken for 6-10 minutes, turning once, until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove the chicken from the skewers. Serve immediately in warmed pita breads with preferred toppings, such as sliced tomatoes, red onions, sliced cucumbers, and a generous dollop of tzatziki sauce.
