Ingredients
  

Chicken Skewers:

  • 24 ounce boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1" cubes
  • 2 medium zucchini cut into 3/4" inch slices
  • ¼ cup olive oil juice and zest
  • 1 medium lemon
  • 4 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup feta cheese for garnish

Cauliflower Rice:

  • 400 gram cauliflower rice
  • 4 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Gather and prep all ingredients. Cut the chicken into 1 to 1 1/2 inch cubes. Slice the zucchini into ~3/4 inch thick pieces.
  • Create the marinade by combining the olive oil, juice and zest from lemon, minced garlic, paprika, rosemary, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour the marinade over the chicken and cover with plastic wrap. Marinade for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Pre-heat grill to medium-high. Skewer the chicken and zucchini, alternating between pieces.
  • Grill the skewers for 3 minutes per side, rotating 1/4 turn as you go along. Chicken should be charred and fully cooked once finished.
  • Prepare the cauliflower rice by adding butter to a pan over medium-high heat. Once melted and bubbling, add in the cauliflower. Season with Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste. Stir frequently allowing moisture to release from cauliflower.
  • Once cauliflower is tender but has bite, serve with the skewers. Sprinkle feta cheese over the top and enjoy!
