Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece red onion, chopped into large cubes
- 2 pieces bell peppers, chopped into large cubes
- 6 pieces wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into 1.5-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, minced garlic, grated ginger, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the chicken cubes to the bowl with the marinade, ensuring all pieces are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, for the best flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of red onion and bell peppers.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the Curried Chicken Kebabs hot with a side of rice, naan, or a crisp salad for a complete meal.
