INGREDIENTS
600g chicken breast chopped into 1.5 inch thick pieces (ask your butcher to do this for you)
6 wooden skewers

METHOD
In a bowl combine the chicken, garlic, lemon juice and oregano. Cover and leave in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 mins. The longer you leave it the more flavoursome.
Wet the skewers under a running tap to prevent them from burning on the BBQ.
Thread the veggies and chicken, alternating with each piece. Aiming for approx 100g on each skewer.
Place the skewers on a hot BBQ and cook each side for approx 3-4 mins or until cooked through.
Serve with some cooked veggies or a salad. Why not stay in theme and serve with this yummy Greek Salad!
