Directions

• For the chicken skewers:

• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium or preheat the broiler.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread the chicken pieces onto 4 skewers.
• If grilling, place the chicken on the grill and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is cooked through.
• For broiling, broil for 8-10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
• While the chicken is cooking make the sauces.
• For the yogurt sauce:
• Mix together the greek yogurt, sour cream, cucumber and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready for use, or for up to 1 day.
• For the relish:
• Combine the tomato, cucumber and parsley in a bowl. Stir in the lemon juice and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready for use, or for up to 1 day.
• Serve the chicken skewers with the yogurt sauce and cucumber relish, as well as flatbread, hummus and olives if desired.
