1

Remove the skin from the turkey breast and cut it into strips, then into small cubes.

2

Place the turkey cubes in a bowl and add chopped garlic, cayenne pepper, olive oil, a seasoning cube, and chopped parsley.

3

Mix everything thoroughly and cover with plastic wrap or foil, then refrigerate to marinate for at least an hour.

4

While the turkey is marinating, cut the bell peppers and onion into squares and set aside.

5

Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

6

Thread the marinated turkey, bell peppers, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between them.

7

Place the skewers on an electric grill (or open fire grill) with space in between each skewer.

8

Turn the skewers often while grilling to prevent burning, and rub olive oil on them during cooking to keep the turkey juicy.

9

Grill for 12 to 15 minutes, or longer if needed, until the turkey is fully cooked.

10

Remove from the grill and serve.
