    List of Ingredients




    Succulent Yogurt Marinated Chicken Kebabs


    1 cup Greek yogurt
    1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    1 small onion, minced
    2 Tbsp. lemon juice
    1 Tbsp. olive oil
    3/4 tsp. ground ginger
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. ground cumin
    1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
    4-6 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch cubes
    6 pita bread wrapped in aluminum foil
    1 cup cleaned and chopped romaine lettuce

    Recipe




    Preheat broiler on high.

    Mix all ingredients except pita, chicken and lettuce in a bowl and pour into a re-sealable bag. Add chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for about 2 hrs.

    Set racks to middle and bottom third of oven.

    Take the chicken out of the bag and place on skewers about 1/2 inches apart. Set skewers on cooling rack on top of aluminum foil covered baking sheet (to minimize cleaning).

    Place skewers on to middle oven rack and cook about 20-30 minutes until cooked through. Turn them at least once during cooking. Be careful not to overcook! For the last five minutes of cooking put the pita on the bottom rack to warm.

    Place the chicken into the pita and garnish with romaine lettuce. Serve with hummus or rice if desired.

    Makes 6 servings.
