Once seasoned, they are baked in the oven and finished under the broiler. They are ready in just 30 minutes! These grilled chicken skewers are excellent. But if you don’t own a grill, or if it’s raining (or snowing!) outside, you can make these oven chicken kabobs and enjoy a juicy and flavorful meal. Turning chicken breast into kabobs makes it more flavorful because the ratio of meat to oil and seasonings is better than when you bake a whole chicken breast. Plus, who doesn’t like food on a stick? 🙂

Olive oil: I love this delicious oil! You can replace it with avocado oil or melted ghee if you wish. Spices: I use sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme. Chicken breasts: I use two large boneless and skinless chicken breasts in this recipe.
You start by mixing the olive oil and spices in a large bowl. Next, cut the chicken into cubes and toss the cubes with the seasoned olive oil. Thread the chicken pieces on skewers. Place them on a rimmed, foil-lined baking sheet and bake them for 15 minutes at 450°F. They should reach an internal temperature of 165°F, so check with an instant-read thermometer to ensure they are done. If your pan is broiler-safe, you can brown the kabobs by broiling them for a minute or so. Serve immediately. But it’s OK to skip marinating and bake them immediately after coating them in the oil and spice mixture. That’s what I usually do.

You can also serve them with a dipping sauce such as:
Tahini sauce Tzatziki sauce Pesto sauce Sour cream dip Homemade ranch dressing
They’re also good cold as a salad topping. I like to add them to this arugula salad or use them in this chicken Cobb salad.
