Directions

Soak Skewers (if wooden) in water for at least 30 minutes or overnight to prevent burning.
Prep π₯
Cut chicken into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Cut red onion and bell peppers into 1 1/2-inch chunks
For the salad: wedge tomatoes, slice cucumber into half-moons, and thinly slice red onion
Cube or slice feta, and chop mint

Add chicken and toss until well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for 15β20 minutes (or longer for more flavor).
How to Cook βπ³
Thread marinated chicken, red onion, and bell pepper pieces onto skewers, alternating and leaving space between for even cooking.
Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat and brush lightly with oil.
Place the skewers in the pan without overcrowding.
Cook for 10β12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and slightly charred.
In a small bowl, whisk together grated garlic, oregano, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.
In a separate large bowl, combine tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta.
Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently. Top with chopped mint before serving.
