In a medium bowl, toss the chicken cubes and zucchini half-moons with half the olive oil, the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Thread the chicken and zucchini alternately onto the skewers, ensuring they are not packed too tightly.
Heat the remaining oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the skewers and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more until the chicken is opaque in the center. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Remove the skillet from the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the hot skewers before serving.
