Here’s a delicious recipe idea for Citrus Chicken Kabobs with Tzatziki:
Ingredients
For the Chicken Kabobs:
1.5 lbs (700g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 orange, juiced and zested
1 lemon, juiced and zested
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprik
1 tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes for skewering
For the Tzatziki:
1 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 cucumber, grated and drained of excess water
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried dill)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, whisk together orange juice & zest, lemon juice & zest, garlic, olive oil, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Add chicken cubes, toss to coat, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours).
2. Prepare the Tzatziki:
In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper.
Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
3. Assemble the Kabobs:
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread chicken cubes (and optional vegetables) onto skewers.
4. Cook the Kabobs:
Grill the kabobs for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred.
5. Serve:
Serve the kabobs hot with a side of tzatziki for dipping.
Optional sides: rice, pita bread, or a fresh salad
If you want, I can also create a quick one-pan citrus chicken kabob recipe that uses the oven instead of a grill for an easy weeknight version.
