Instructions

Prepare the Marinade by combining olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Marinate the chicken by adding cubes to the marinade, covering, and refrigerating for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Assemble skewers by threading marinated chicken and optional vegetables onto them.
Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is fully cooked.
Serve warm with tzatziki sauce or pita bread.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Use leftover marinade during grilling for added flavor.
