Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Marinate: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

12 oz. raw boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice

1 1/2 tsp. olive oil

1 tsp. chopped garlic

1 tsp. Italian seasoning

1/4 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. black pepper

1 dash crushed red pepper

16 cherry tomatoes

Directions:

Place all ingredients except tomatoes in a medium bowl. Stir to mix and coat.

Cover and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning. (You'll need four.)

Thread chicken onto 4 skewers, packing together tightly. Add two cherry tomatoes to both ends of each skewer.

Spray a grill or grill pan with nonstick spray, and bring to medium-high heat. Grill skewers until chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes, rotating to evenly cook.

Indoor Grilling Game-Changer!

SENSARTE Nonstick Grill Pan

Just because you live in an area that's cold in the winter doesn't mean you can't have grill marks on your food year-round! (Why do grill marks make everything taste better?) This 11-inch die cast aluminum pan has a special coating to prevent anything from sticking to the surface, even with minimal oil. Use it on gas, electric, induction, glass, or ceramic cooktops. Score!
