Prep and cooking time: 1hr
Complex carb portions, per serving: 0
Ingredients
Serves: 4
400g chicken breast or thigh
4 tbsp plain natural or Greek yoghurt
1 lemon, juiced
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried rosemary
2 garlic cloves, finely diced or minced
1 courgette, sliced into thick rounds
1 red onion, roughly chopped
1 red pepper, roughly chopped
1 yellow pepper, roughly chopped
1 small handful fresh parsley, finely chopped
Method
Dice the chicken breast and place in a sandwich bag.
Mix together the greek yoghurt, lemon juice, 1 tbsp of the oil, oregano, rosemary, and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the marinade into the sandwich bag, seal the bag and mix well by massaging with your hands.
Place in the fridge for at least 30mins, or until you’re ready to cook.
Meanwhile, soak 8 bamboo skewers in water.
Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.
Skewer the chicken, peppers, onion and courgette onto the skewers, alternating as you go.
Grill the skewers for 8-10mins, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Serve sprinkled with the parsley and a large side salad. We love to serve this recipe with a greek salad.
