Take your tastebuds on an adventure with this Chicken Souvlaki recipe. It's an easy and healthy meal that's naturally high in protein and low in carbohydrates. And it's bursting with bright Greek flavor!
In a glass measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, rosemary, salt, pepper, parsley, oregano, and marjoram.
Place the chicken in a bowl and pour the marinade over. Toss to coat well and refrigerate for 4 hours and up to overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium high. If using bamboo skewers, remember to soak them in water for at least 1 hour before using.
Thread the meat and zucchini onto the skewers and place over the heat. Grill about 4 minutes per side, turning quarter turns, until nicely browned and cooked through. The chicken should register 165ºF on an instant read thermometer.
Remove from the grill and add additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve on or off the skewers with Chunky Feta Dressing.
