Chicken Skewers with Marinade

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb chicken breast
• ½ cup plain yogurt
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place in a bowl.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, mix 0.5 cup yogurt, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

3. 3

   Pour the marinade over the chicken and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.

4. 4

   Thread the chicken onto skewers, dividing evenly. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes first.

5. 5

   Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).

6. 6

   Let rest for 2 minutes before serving. Optionally, sprinkle with fresh herbs or extra lemon juice.
