Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
• 120 grams Low-fat Yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
• 0 as needed Olive Oil Cooking Spray
• 1 large Bell Pepper
• 1 Red Onion

Directions

Step 1

Start by cutting the boneless, skinless chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine low-fat yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the marinade.

Step 3

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better flavor absorption.

Step 4

While waiting, soak wooden skewers in water if using, to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 5

Prepare the vegetables by cutting the bell pepper and red onion into similar 1-inch chunks.

Step 6

Thread the marinated chicken pieces, along with chunks of bell pepper and red onion, onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.

Step 7

Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 8

Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred.

Step 9

Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving, if desired.
