Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Kabobs

2 tsp Spanish paprika
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground green cardamom
salt and pepper
2 lbs boneless chicken breasts cut into large cubes
1 yellow onion sliced
1/2 C extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp minced garlic
6 tbsp lemon or lime juice
2 bell peppers (your choice of color) cut into 1.5" pieces
1 red onion cut into 1.5" pieces

In a small bowl, combine paprika, thyme, nutmeg, cardamom, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Generously coat the chicken with the spices.

Place the chicken cubes in a deep dish with the sliced onions and add the minced garlic and juice. Add a generous drizzle of the olive oil. Toss the chicken to make sure it's well coated, cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours (or marinate 30 minutes at room temperature).

Prepare kebobs by threading chicken, peppers, and onion onto skewers. Grill kebobs, turning occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until chicken reaches internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

Serve kabobs with warm pita, tahini sauce, and Lebanese rice with vermicelli.
