Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 3 gloves crushed garlic
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 chicken stock cube crumbled
- 4 bay leaves
- 1/2 lemon cut into wedges
- 1 cup pitted green olives
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, lemon juice, crushed garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, and crumbled chicken stock cube. Mix well to form a marinade.
- Add the chicken breast pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Once the chicken has marinated, thread the chicken pieces onto skewers, alternating with bay leaves and lemon wedges.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the kebabs for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- During the last few minutes of cooking, add the pitted green olives to the grill, allowing them to heat through and char slightly.
- Remove the kebabs from the grill and serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy!
