Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Marinade
Mix Marinade: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir until well mixed.
Marinate Chicken: Add the cubed chicken to the bowl and toss to coat the chicken thoroughly in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Step 2: Prepare the Skewers
Soak Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Skewer Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the skewers, dividing them evenly among the skewers.
Step 3: Cook the Skewers
Preheat Grill or Oven: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, or preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Grill or Bake:
Grill: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char.
Oven: Place the skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked.
Step 4: Serve
Garnish and Serve: Remove the chicken skewers from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
