Instructions

Step 1

Combine the chicken, za'atar, garlic powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and oil. Mix well and marinate for 4-12 hours or overnight.

Step 2

Preheat the grill to 450°F and thread the chicken onto skewers.

Step 3

If you are using wooden skew-ers, soak them in water for 30 minutes so they don't burn.

Step 4

Grill for 5-7 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until cooked through and a bit charred on the outside.

Step 5

While the chicken cooks, mix together the herb ingredients in a bowl, and spoon the fresh herbs over the hot skewers just before serving. (I used dried herbs and fresh mint, any combo herbs is fine )
