Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 medium Italian sandwich buns
  • 1 cup lemon juice
  • ¼ cup white vinegar
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 2  tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 2  tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Whisk lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, basil, mint, parsley, oregano and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in oil. Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade in a small bowl and refrigerate. Place chicken in a large sealable bag and add the remaining marinade. Seal the bag and massage the chicken to thoroughly coat. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours.
  • Preheat grill to high.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the remaining marinade). Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and divide among 4 metal skewers.
  • Oil the grill rack. Grill the chicken, flipping often, until charred on all sides and an instantread thermometer registers 160 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a clean plate and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the skewers and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Drizzle with the reserved marinade and serve on buns.
