Ingredients

• 500 grams chicken breast
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 yellow bell pepper
• 1 red onion
• 1 zucchini
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 10 grams fresh mint leaves
• 150 grams plain yogurt
• 12 wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.

Step 2

Cut the red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into 1-inch pieces and set aside.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 4

Pour the marinade over the chicken and vegetables. Mix well to ensure all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.

Step 5

While the chicken is marinating, soak the wooden skewers in water to prevent them from burning during grilling.

Step 6

Make the yogurt mint sauce by finely chopping the fresh mint leaves and mixing them into the plain yogurt. Set aside in the refrigerator.

Step 7

Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.

Step 8

Thread the marinated chicken and vegetables alternately onto the soaked skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.

Step 9

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are slightly charred.

Step 10

Serve the mini kebabs hot with the yogurt mint sauce on the side for dipping.
