• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Thread the chicken, onion wedges, and green bell pepper pieces alternately onto skewers. Discard remaining yogurt mixture.
• Grill skewers on the prepared grill until the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Steps:

• Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes before use.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil the grate.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off excess liquid. Discard the remaining marinade. Alternately thread pieces of the marinated chicken with pieces of bell pepper, onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms onto the skewers.
• Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides, and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes.

• Prior to cooking, alternate chicken, mushrooms, bell peppers, and onion on skewers - (Note: it is best not to end with bell peppers as they tended to slide off after being cooked).
