Instructions:
Cut the chicken in to a large dice, about 1-2 inch pieces. In a large zip lock bag, combine chicken, 4 TBSP minced garlic, 1/2 of a diced red onion, oregano, juice of one lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper. Marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes or longer. Longer is better.

After the chicken is done marinating, heat grill pan or skillet over medium heat. To skewer or not to skewer? Up to you!
Enjoy!!!
