Ingredients

Directions

Whisk olive oil, wine, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, black pepper, thyme, oregano, tarragon, pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper together in a large bowl until well combined; whisk in onion and garlic. Add chicken cubes; stir to thoroughly coat.

Pour chicken mixture into a resealable plastic freezer bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Wrap the bag in a paper towel; place into another resealable plastic freezer bag, with zippers on opposite ends. Refrigerate, for 2 to 3 days, flipping every 12 hours,.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.

Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Thread chicken cubes onto skewers. Discard remaining marinade.

Cook on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink in centers and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Cook’s Note

This recipe works for up to 3 chicken breasts.

If you can't grill skewers, then broil them in the oven on high 3 to 6 inches from the heat source (you want just the slightest crisp to the meat).
