Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 120 ml low-fat plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 dash olive oil cooking spray
- 2 medium bell peppers
- 1 medium red onion
- 8 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
Begin by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning in the oven.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes of about 2-inch pieces and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken cubes to the marinade. Stir to coat the chicken evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Cut the bell peppers and red onion into pieces similar in size to the chicken.
Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and onion pieces alternately onto the skewers.
Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray and place the skewers onto the sheet.
Bake the skewers in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve these delicious low-fat roasted chicken kebabs with your favorite side or salad.
