Instructions

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes so they don't scorch on the grill.
- 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken pieces with 2 tbsp garlic-infused oil, 1 tsp dried oregano, smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and black pepper. Toss until every piece is evenly coated, then set aside to marinate at room temperature for 20–30 minutes (or refrigerate up to 4 hours).
