Ingredients

• Protein / Main: 500g chicken breast, beef sirloin, or firm tofu, cut into bite-sized cubes

• Vegetables:

  • 1 large red bell pepper, chopped into chunks

  • 1 large yellow bell pepper, chopped into chunks

  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges

  • 1 cup fresh mushrooms (whole or halved)

• The Marinade & Baste:

  • $\frac{1}{4}$ cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • $\frac{1}{2}$ teaspoon salt

  • $\frac{1}{4}$ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Prep the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before assembling to prevent them from burning on the grill.

2. Mix the Marinade: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

3. Coat the Ingredients: Add your cubed protein and chopped vegetables into the bowl with the marinade. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated. Let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

4. Assemble: Thread the marinated protein and vegetables alternately onto the skewers, mixing up the colors and textures for a vibrant presentation.

5. Grill to Perfection: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grates and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with any remaining marinade, until the protein is fully cooked and the vegetables have a nice char.

6. Serve: Remove from the heat, let them rest for a couple of minutes, and serve warm with a squeeze of fresh lemon or your favorite dipping sauce
