Step 1
In a bowl, combine the yogurt, pepper, chili flakes, oregano, paprika, salt, cumin, ketchup, and lemon juice. Give it a good mix until everything is well blended.
Step 2
Add the chicken to the marinade and toss it around so it’s fully coated. Let it sit for at least an hour, or even better, overnight in the fridge.
Step 3
Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken until it’s nicely browned on both sides.
Step 4
Once the chicken is almost done, add chopped tomatoes, chilies, and onions to the pan. Cook the veggies until they’re soft and slightly caramelized.
Step 5
If you have a grill or a way to add a bit of smoky flavor, now’s the time—give the chicken a quick smoke for that extra touch.
Step 6
Serve everything up and enjoy your tasty homemade chicken skewers!
Serving Recommendations
Serve with warm pita bread, fresh tabbouleh, and a side of garlic yogurt sauce. A simple salad of cucumbers, tomatoes, and parsley also pairs beautifully with these skewers.
Best Storage Tips
Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or on the stovetop to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
