Description

Mediterranean chicken kebabs are marinated in a deliciously tangy mix of lemon juice, onion juice, olive oil, yogurt, garlic, and saffron.

Ingredients

3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into large cubes
1 cup plain yogurt
1 cup lemon juice
1 cup onion juice
1 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon saffron
8 skewers, or as needed

Directions

1 Mix yogurt, lemon juice, onion juice, olive oil, garlic, black pepper, and saffron together in a large bowl. Add chicken pieces to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate, 8 hours to overnight.
2 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
3 Remove chicken from marinade; thread through skewers. Discard unused marinade.
4 Cook on the preheated grill, turning frequently, until golden brown on all sides and meat is no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side.
