RECIPE BACKSTORY
https://www.naughtyandnicekitchen.com/rosemarychickenskewers.html
Our 'Keto Rosemary Chicken Skewers' are so freaking juicy and tender thanks mainly to the lemon marinade that our Chicken took a nice long bath in. Lemon assists in breaking down chicken which therefore makes it tender, however you shouldn't marinade for longer than 2 hours or else it can lead to the chicken having an undesirable texture once cooked.
