Yogurt Marinated Chicken (Gluten free)
The chicken breasts (or chicken thighs) marinate in a yogurt and spice mixture that’s bursting with greek flavors. Marinating chicken in yogurt is one of the best hacks I have ever learned. I love marinating my chicken with yogurt because it makes the chicken so tender and locks the juices in!
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup plain fat free Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Greek seasoning or a mixture of garlic powder, oregano, basil, paprika, salt, and pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt and Greek seasoning. Stir well until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Marinate the chicken: Place the cut chicken pieces in a large bowl. Pour the prepared marinade over the chicken and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Assemble the skewers: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto medium-sized metal skewers, spacing them evenly apart.
- Grill the skewers: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred. Flip the skewers halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Serve: Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the grilled chicken skewers with your favorite sides, such as rice, salad, or roasted vegetables.
