Steps:
- Mix lemon juice, olive oil, za'atar, garlic, salt, and pepper together. Put chicken in a zip-locked bag and pour marinade over it. Marinate the chicken at least 2-3 hours or as long as overnight.
- If using wooden skewers, soak in water at least 30 minutes if grilling outdoors (I usually double them up so they are easier to turn).
- Prepare the yogurt sauce by combining the ingredients in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
- Thread chicken onto the skewers. You should have 4 kabobs total.
- Preheat the grill over medium heat, oil the grates and cook (indoor or outdoor grill works fine) until the chicken is cooked though, turning often about 12 to 15 minutes.
- Serve with lemon wedges and yogurt sauce.

MEAL PREP CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH OLIVE, CUCUMBER AND HERB YOGURT SAUCE
Recipes that get even better with time, whether by making sauces in advance or marinating proteins, are a meal prepper's dream. Not only do you get ahead, but you also build flavor and tenderness without any extra effort. Couple that with using the same ingredients in different ways, and you get recipes with easy shopping and simple preparation. Yogurt, paprika, lemon and feta all get used in many ways throughout these recipes.

Steps:
- For the olive, cucumber and herb yogurt sauce: Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater into a clean kitchen towel or fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Squeeze or push against the sides of the sieve to remove excess water; set aside. Put the yogurt, olives, feta, parsley, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, oregano, paprika, garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender and process until evenly combined and smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the grated cucumber. Season with salt to taste. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; the sauce just gets better as it sits.
- For the chicken skewers: Whisk together the yogurt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon zest, 4 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken, stir to coat evenly, cover and marinate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- Skewer the chicken pieces onto twenty-four 8- to 10-inch metal skewers (see Cook's Note), about 6 pieces per skewer.
- Heat a large grill pan over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil.
- Working in batches, cook the chicken skewers, flipping halfway through when they release naturally from the pan, until charred all over and cooked through but still tender, 9 to 10 minutes total. Serve immediately with the yogurt sauce, or cool completely, then remove the chicken from the skewers. The chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat the chicken in the oven at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes if frozen and 10 to 12 minutes if refrigerated.

Steps:
- For the ras al hanout: Add the cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, paprika, nutmeg, cayenne, cloves, allspice, coriander, pepper and turmeric to a jar with a lid. Cover and shake to combine. Measure out 1 tablespoon for the chicken and put in a large bowl. Store the remaining spice for up to 3 months in the jar and use as desired.
- For the chicken: In the bowl with the ras al hanout, add the yogurt, mint, oil, salt, sugar, harissa, garlic, finely chopped onion, juice from half of the lemon and about 12 turns of pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon) and mix to combine. Fold in the chicken to evenly coat, then cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
- Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
- Thread the chicken pieces on the skewers, adding the bell pepper and onion pieces in between the meat.
- Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the skewers, turning them occasionally, until they're deeply browned on all sides and cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Squeeze with the juice from the remaining lemon half before serving.
GRILLED CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH TARRAGON AND YOGURT
These grilled chicken skewers are gently spiced with a ginger-and-cumin yogurt marinade, which makes the meat exceedingly tender and cooks to fragrant curds. As they grill, the skewers are gilded with a tarragon-mint baste that tastes distinctly Persian. Restraint and a very hot grill are both key to getting a good char: Don't move the skewers until the yogurt is burnished and the meat releases from the grates. Color is flavor. Catch any juices that run out of the cooked skewers with warm pita bread. Leftovers make excellent chicken salad.

Steps:
- Prepare the chicken: Cut each thigh in half against the grain. Rub with salt and set aside.
- Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, lime juice, olive oil, salt and garlic. Reserve and refrigerate 1 cup marinade for serving. Put remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag and add the ginger, cumin and chicken; squelch around to coat thoroughly then refrigerate for 1 hour, or up to 48 hours.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 1 hour before you plan to grill. If using wooden skewers, immerse them in water to soak for 15 minutes. Alternatively, use metal skewers or none at all.
- Prepare the grill: Clean the grate thoroughly and build a hot fire. The skewers will cook over intense, direct heat. The coals are ready when they glow red and the grate hisses when you drop water on it.
- Thread the chicken lengthwise onto skewers (if using), then smear with the marinade from the bag.
- Prepare the baste: Place the butter and salt in a small saucepan to melt on the cooler side of the grill (or use the stovetop). Once butter is melted, add the lime juice and chopped herbs; keep warm but do not boil.
- Grilling in batches if necessary, place the chicken on the grill a few inches apart. When you see a good char forming underneath, about 3 to 5 minutes, gently tug a skewer or the chicken: If it feels very stuck, leave it a few more minutes before turning. When the chicken releases easily and looks nicely charred in places, flip it using a fish spatula to gently pry any stuck bits off the grate.
- Baste the chicken with the herb butter and arrange the scallions in a single layer on the cooler edges of the grill. Let the chicken cook on the second side until firm and cooked through and turn the scallions occasionally until grill-marked and tender, about 8 minutes.
- Grill the pitas until marked, about 1 minute, turning halfway through. Lay them on the serving platter and place the scallions and chicken on top. Drizzle the bread, scallions and chicken with any remaining warm herb butter. Dollop chicken with reserved marinade, squeeze with lime and top with extra tarragon or mint.
CHICKEN SATAY SKEWERS WITH CUCUMBER YOGURT SAUCE
This is great with Peanut Noodle Salad. It's refreshing and a nice change of pace from your average grilled chicken. If you don't have bamboo skewers, don't worry... I don't use them half the time either. Just grill chicken and enjoy.

Steps:
- Make the chicken: In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic, thyme leaves, Zesty spice blend, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Whisk well.
- Add the cubed chicken to the marinade and stir well to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
- While the chicken marinates, make the yogurt dip: In a medium bowl, mix together the yogurt, Zesty spice blend, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, basil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Once chicken has marinated, thread 2-3 pieces of chicken lengthwise onto a wooden skewer. Leave at least 1 inch (2 ½ cm) of space at the bottom of each skewer so you can maneuver them while cooking. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush a few teaspoons of vegetable oil on the pan. Season the chicken skewers with salt and pepper and add a few at a time to the grill pan, ensuring the skewers are laid perpendicular to the grill lines. Grill until the chicken is cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. Set the cooked skewers on a plate or tray while you cook the rest.
- Arrange the skewers on platter and serve with the yogurt dipping sauce.
- Enjoy!
