🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into chunks
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese (light or regular)
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • Wooden or metal skewers

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Prep the Skewers

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20–30 minutes to prevent burning.

2️⃣ Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, parmesan, Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Add chicken pieces and toss until evenly coated.
For best flavor, marinate 15–30 minutes (optional but recommended).

3️⃣ Assemble

Thread chicken pieces evenly onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

4️⃣ Grill

Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
Grill skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning every few minutes, until chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165°F) and lightly charred.

5️⃣ Finish & Serve

Remove from grill, sprinkle with fresh parsley and a light dusting of extra parmesan if desired. Serve hot!

🔥 Cooking Alternatives

Air Fryer: Cook at 380°F for 10–12 minutes, turning halfway.

⭐ WW Points (Estimated)

  • 3–4 WW Points per serving
    (Points may vary depending on cheese and oil used)

💡 Tips for Success

  • Use finely grated parmesan so it sticks better
  • Don’t overcrowd skewers—airflow = better browning
  • For extra crispiness, lightly spray skewers with cooking spray before grilling
  • Add a squeeze of lemon at the end for brightness 🍋
