Description
Homemade Chicken Kebabs are so easy to make and give us succulent, juicy meat that’s packed with flavour thanks to the simple yoghurt marinade. This recipe works for the oven, grill or barbecue!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 kg Chicken thighs (Boneless and skinless)
- 150 g Natural yoghurt
- 2 tsp Paprika
- 2 tsp Ground cumin
- 0.5 tsp Cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp Dried chilli flakes
- 2 tsp Garlic granules
- 1 Lemon (Zest and juice)
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- Step: Slice the chicken: Cut the chicken thighs lengthways with a knife.
- Step: Make the marinade: Mix the ingredients together well in a large bowl.
- Step: Combine: Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and mix well. Cover with cling film and put in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or even better, overnight.
- Step: Time to cook: Thread the coated chicken onto skewers and cook for about 20 minutes until golden on the outside and cooked through.
Notes
The chicken will be really flavourful if you can leave it for at least 2 hours in the fridge. If you are using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using. For best results, use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches 74°C. You can use chicken breasts instead of thighs if preferred.
