If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes so they don't char on the grill.

In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of the garlic-infused oil, the finely diced Roma tomatoes (for the marinade), 3 tablespoons of the sliced basil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken cubes and toss to coat evenly. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
