I just tried this recipe from my new Weber's Way to Grill book -- it turned out really good! It's a great quick recipe, as it can marinate for as little as 30 minutes, but still looks impressive. I've published this recipe in the minimum, so it can be used for 1 or 2 servings and easily increased for more. Preparation time includes minimum marinating time.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 skewers, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 large onion, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (I use bottled)
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 chicken breasts, cut into pieces
2 -5 skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes

Steps:

  • Combine onion, lemon juice, oregano, paprika and garlic and puree in a small food processor blender.
  • Add olive oil and process until well mixed.
  • Combine chicken and marinade in a resealable plastic bag or other container so that chicken is completely covered (I just put it in a bowl and toss it periodically). Let marinade for at least 30 minutes, but longer is ok, too. Remember, because the marinade has oil in it, the oil will rise to the top so you may have to keep stirring it if you want to let it sit longer.
  • Thread chicken pieces onto skewers and grill on direct medium heat for approximately 8 minutes per side, depending on preference and grill heat. I usually have my grill up to high, so the chicken only takes about 12 minutes total.

These kabobs are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I just shredded some cooked chicken and added it to the marinade.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my kabobs didn't turn out as tender as I had hoped.

The marinade is so flavorful, and it really tenderizes the chicken. I also love the addition of the yogurt - it makes the kabobs so moist.
