Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, cut into 1 ½ inch pieces
2 cup Nounós Creamery Classic Plain Greek Yogurt
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Zest and juice of one lemon
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp fresh dill, roughly chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint, roughly chopped
1-2 cloves garlic, grated
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp chili flakes
1 tsp salt
½ tsp cracked pepper
Steps
Add the cubed chicken to a large ziplock bag and set aside.
In a medium sized bowl, add the remaining ingredients and stir until well combined. Add the yogurt marinade to the bag of chicken cubes and toss until well coated. Refrigerate for at least four hours, or overnight.
When ready to cook, add the marinated chicken to your skewers (pre-soaked if using wood). Preheat the grill to medium high heat and cook for 13-15 minutes, moving regularly to prevent sticking. Transfer to a platter and serve.
