A delicious and nutritious high protein chicken kebab recipe featuring marinated chicken breast pieces grilled to perfection, perfect for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
500 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
Wooden or metal skewers (if wooden, soaked in water for 30 minutes before use)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, ground coriander, ground turmeric, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the chicken breast cubes to the marinade and toss to coat all pieces evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably 2 hours for best flavor.
Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion.
Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 3 to 4 minutes to ensure even cooking. The chicken should be cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
