Instructions

Step 1/4

Marinate the Chicken

  • 150g Chicken Thigh
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 2 Garlic Clove
  • 1/4 tsp Paprika
  • 1/4 tsp Dried Oregano

In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add diced chicken thigh to the marinade and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or overnight for more flavor).

Step 2/4

Prepare the Tzatziki

  • 50g Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 Small Cucumber
  • 1 Garlic Clove
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 tsp Dried Dill

While the chicken is marinating, grate and squeeze all the excess liquid out of a cucumber, then simply stir it into a bowl with Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and fresh dill until well combined.

Step 3/4

Cook the Chicken

Preheat a grill or a grill pan with oil over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers. Grill the chicken skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.

Step 4/4

Assemble the Dish

  • 2 Pita Bread
  • 30g Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/2 Small Red Onion

Warm the pita bread on the grill for a minute on each side. Serve the grilled chicken skewers with the pita bread, havled cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, and a generous dollop of tzatziki.
