Ingredients

  • 800 grams boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 120 grams plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 medium bell peppers
  • 1 medium red onion

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into 1.5-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably up to 3 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 4

While the chicken is marinating, cut the bell peppers and red onion into similar-sized pieces to the chicken.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper and red onion.

Step 7

Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking, then place the skewers on the grill.

Step 8

Grill the kebabs for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have a nice char.

Step 9

Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top before serving.

Step 10

Serve the kebabs hot with your choice of side dishes, such as a fresh salad or fluffy couscous.
