👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Cut chicken breast into 3-4 cm cubes. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade, then add bay leaves.
2. Add chicken cubes, bell pepper chunks, and onion pieces to the marinade. Toss well to coat all ingredients and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably 2-4 hours.
3. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and onions onto long skewers, alternating the ingredients.
4. Grill the skewers for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred on all sides. Baste with remaining marinade occasionally.
5. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving hot.
