1

Start by soaking the skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.

2

In a mixing bowl, combine 200 grams of yogurt, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, minced garlic from 3 cloves, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

3

Cut 500 grams of chicken breast into bite-sized cubes and add them to the marinade. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated.

4

Cover the marinated chicken and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes (longer if possible, up to 2 hours for more flavor).

5

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.

6

Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers.

7

Grill the chicken skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are fully cooked and have a nice char.

8

Serve hot with your choice of dips, salad, or pita bread.

• Marinate the chicken with different spices like cumin or coriander for a flavor twist.
• Serve the kebabs with a homemade tzatziki sauce for added freshness.
• Add colorful bell peppers and onions to the skewers for extra flavor and presentation.

• For extra tender chicken, marinate for a longer period, ideally overnight.
• Make sure to preheat your grill before cooking the kebabs to achieve a good sear.
• Serve with lemon wedges for added brightness.
