These have tons of flavor and cook quickly. I vary the spices I include, for their version I used La Kama \u2013 which is a Moroccan spice blend. The one key ingredient is plain yogurt \u2013 you can use either greek or regular. I like to make extra so there is some for a chicken salad or sandwich the next day. I also, use bamboo skewers \u2013 which Im usually to lazy to soak. You can use metal skewers if you have them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6 skinless boneless chicken cut into 1\u2033 strips length wise<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 large yellow onions cut into quarters<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 cup yogurt<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1\/4 cup olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 lemon<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3 heaping tablespoons of La Kama spice mix- this is a moroccan mix of 2 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp turmeric, 2 tsp ginger & a 1\/4 teaspoon nutmeg. You can also, use curry powder as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 tspn kosher salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6-8 bamboo skewers<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mix yogurt, spice mixture, salt and oil in a bowl and combine well . Add chicken and onions combine well and cover. Let marinate in fridge for 30 \u2013 60 mins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heat grill to medium high \u2013 you can also, you a grill pan on the stove top or under the broiler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the skewers thread one piece of one and thread a piece two pieces of chicken on followed by a piece of onion. Think about ribbon candy as a guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cook skewers over medium high heat for 8- 10 minutes per side. They yogurt gives the chicken a great char! remove to a platter and squeeze the juice of the lemon over and let rest 10 minutes before serving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I like to serve this with couscous and a veggie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
