Preparation

1. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, oregano, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice and parsley. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
2. Meanwhile, soak bamboo skewers in warm water and set aside.
3. Preheat oven to 375°F.
4. Cook potatoes in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain.

6. Meanwhile, thread chicken onto skewers and set aside.
7. Place chicken skewers onto other half of baking sheet. Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 20 more minutes.
