Time 2h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-sized pieces
1 (6 ounce) container plain Greek-style yogurt
½ cucumber - peeled, seeded, and grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch salt
6 wooden skewers, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, 2 cloves minced garlic, oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large resealable bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
  • Mix yogurt, cucumber, 1 tablespoon olive oil, vinegar, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 pinch salt together in a bowl. Refrigerate tzatziki sauce for flavors to blend, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Soak wooden skewers in a bowl of water for about 15 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Discard unused marinade.
  • Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side. Serve with tzatziki sauce.

SKILLET CHICKEN SOUVLAKI

So good! I made for supper the other night and we both loved it. Used regular nonfat yogurt instead of the Greek yogurt/sour cream, but I strained it so that it was good and thick like the Greek kind. Also, I just use cooking spray instead of the olive oil, and Cavender's Greek seasoning is awesome on the chicken, peppers, and onions. Dill is great in the tzaziki sauce, too.
