Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
- 120 ml Greek yogurt, full-fat
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Cumin, ground
- 1 tsp Coriander, ground
- 1 tsp Oregano, dried
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 medium Cucumber, sliced
- 2 tbsp Fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces Keto-friendly flatbread or wrap
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the chicken thighs into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) or preheat your grill or barbeque.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, packing them tightly.
Place the skewers on a parchment-lined baking sheet or directly on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a slightly charred exterior.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the accompaniments. In a small bowl, mix the sliced red onion with chopped mint and parsley to create a fresh herb salad.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skewers and slice thinly.
Serve the sliced chicken on a keto-friendly flatbread or wrap, topped with the fresh herb salad and cucumber slices.
Optionally, serve with a side of your favorite low-carb sauce or dressing.
