These Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers are easy to make, packed with flavor, and the perfect way to elevate your grilling game without breaking a sweat. Perfect for summer barbecues or cozy family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.5 pounds chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and toss until fully coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
  3. Preheat the grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, preheat it over medium heat.
  4. Assemble the skewers: Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
  5. Grill the skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
  6. Add Parmesan: During the last minute of grilling, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the skewers and let it melt slightly.
  7. Garnish and serve: Remove the skewers from the grill and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes.

Notes

[‘Don’t skip the marinade for maximum flavor.’, ‘Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.’, ‘Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking the chicken.’, ‘Fresh garlic and Parmesan cheese enhance the flavor.’, ‘For charcoal grills, move skewers to a cooler part of the grill if flare-ups occur.’]
