Equipment

Cast Iron Grill Pan
Skewers

Ingredients

2 lbs chicken breasts (approx. 2-3 chicken breasts)
¾ cup olive oil
1 tbsp dry oregano
1 tbsp dry marjoram
1 tbsp Mediterranean salt
3 lemons

Instructions

Cut chicken breasts in cube shapes about 1 inch on each side
Soak skewers in water
Add chicken pieces in a bowl. Throw in olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, marjoram, salt and lemon zest from 1 lemon. Mix well to allow the flavors to mix and then cover the bowl with a plastic wrap. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour.
Heat up pre-seasoned cast iron grill pan. I keep heat on high. Usually the heat will be higher middle of the pan than sides so flip skewers accordingly. Usually I try to cook for 4 minutes on each side to cook chicken thoroughly. Move skewers from the sides of the pan to the middle as some skewers finish cooking. Then add new ones on the sides.
Serve chicken kabobs with a greek salad, pita bread, tzatziki or yogurt based dip.
