Ingredients

  • 500 grams chicken breast
  • 120 grams full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 30 ml fresh lemon juice
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 piece Red bell pepper, sliced into large pieces
  • 1 piece Green bell pepper, sliced into large pieces
  • 1 piece onion, cut into wedges

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground allspice, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.

Step 3

Add the marinade to the chicken pieces, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 5

While the grill heats, thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, alternating with pieces of red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion wedges.

Step 6

Once the grill is ready, place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and vegetables are slightly charred.

Step 7

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve the Keto Chicken Taouk with a side salad or grilled vegetables for a complete meal.
