Ingredients

1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1.5-inch pieces)

1 cup plain full-fat yogurt

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

3 garlic cloves (finely grated)

1 tablespoons tomato paste

2 teaspoons fine kosher salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions

In a large bowl, combine 1 cup plain full-fat yogurt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 3 garlic cloves (finely grated), and 1 tablespoons tomato paste. Add 2 teaspoons fine kosher salt, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 2 teaspoons smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano then mix until smooth.

Add 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (cubed) and coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours (overnight preferred).

Thread chicken onto skewers, but don't pack too tightly - this ensures even cooking.

Preheat a grill or a grill pan to medium-high.

Cook skewers for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally.
