Greek Chicken Kabobs

Ingredients:

• Skewers
• 1 - 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 1/2" pieces

 

Yogurt Sauce/Marinade:

• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 1/4 cup plain yogurt
• 1/2 lemon, juiced
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh herbs, for example: oregano, dill, and tarragon
• salt and pepper

 

 

Preparation:

1. To make the sauce, put the yogurt, garlic, herbs, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste in a large, glass bowl and mix together.
2. Set aside 1/4 of the sauce, cover and refrigerate until needed.
3. Add chicken pieces to the sauce in the bowl and mix until the chicken is well coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
4. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes so they won't burn on the grill.
5. Thread the marinated chicken on the skewers.
6. Place the Kabobs on a medium hot grill and cook until the chicken is cooked all the way through. Turn every few minutes to prevent them from burning.
7. You can pour the extra yogurt sauce over the cooked kabobs or serve it on the side for dipping.
