Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken breasts, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to prepare the marinade.
Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours for optimal flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F, and oil the grates.
Thread the marinated chicken and veggies onto skewers in a repeating pattern.
Grill the kabobs for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, brushing with reserved marinade.
Remove from grill, let rest, and serve warm with tzatziki or pita.
