Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp fresh herbs (parsley or cilantro), chopped

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Cut the chicken into bite-sized cubes and add them to the marinade. Stir well to coat and cover the bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving space between pieces for even cooking.
  5. Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  6. While grilling, mix yogurt, lemon juice, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper in another bowl until smooth.
  7. Serve the skewers on a platter alongside the yogurt dip.
