These Lemony Herb Halal Chicken Skewers are the quintessential light and healthy summer meal. Cubes of tender halal chicken are marinated in a simple yet potent mix of fresh lemon juice, olive oil, and a generous amount of fresh herbs like thyme and oregano. This marinade is the secret to ensuring the chicken remains juicy and flavorful on the grill. Skewering the chicken makes it easy to handle and cook evenly, developing a lovely char. It’s a low-carb, high-protein, and family-friendly dish that pairs perfectly with a side of rice or a fresh Greek salad.
