Greek Yogurt Chicken Kebabs with Tzatziki Sauce
Greek Yogurt Chicken Kebabs with Tzatziki Sauce is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with tender chicken marinated in Greek yogurt and spices, skewered and grilled to perfection, and served with a creamy tzatziki sauce.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
For the chicken kebabs:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
For the tzatziki sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup grated cucumber, squeezed dry
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
- Salt and pepper, to taste
To make the chicken kebabs, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken cubes and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the chicken cubes onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece. Grill the kebabs for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
To make the tzatziki sauce, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to combine.
Serve the chicken kebabs hot with the tzatziki sauce on the side. This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a weeknight dinner. The chicken is tender and flavorful, with a tangy and creamy tzatziki sauce that perfectly complements the spices.
