Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 1 medium red onion
  • 1 large bell pepper
  • 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Dice the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, and finely minced garlic.

Step 3

Add ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mixture and whisk thoroughly.

Step 4

Add chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are all well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Step 5

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 6

Dice the red onion and bell pepper into similar-sized pieces as the chicken.

Step 7

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Grill the kebabs for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has some charred edges.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
