Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (cut into bite-sized cubes)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Optional: zucchini, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, bell peppers (for skewers)
  • Wooden or metal skewers
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  • Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Add chicken, toss to coat, and marinate for 30 minutes.
  • In another bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Thread marinated chicken onto skewers, alternating with veggies if using.
  • Roll skewers in the Parmesan mixture, pressing to coat evenly.
  • Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high. Cook skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken reaches 165°F.
    Oven: Preheat oven to 425°F. Place skewers on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway. Broil for 2–3 minutes for extra crispiness.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Can be made ahead and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
  • Customize with your favorite low-carb veggies.
  • For a spicier kick, add cayenne pepper to the Parmesan coating.
