Ingredients:

  •   2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into skewer-sized chinks)
  •   2/3 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat preferred)
  •   1 lemon (juiced)
  •   4 cloves garlic (grated or finely minced)
  •   1.5 tsp ground cumin
  •   1.5 tsp smoked paprika
  •   1.5 tsp dried oregano
  •   1.5 tsp Aleppo pepper
  •   1.5 tsp kosher salt
  •   1/2 tsp black pepper
  •   1 1/2 tsp honey
  •   2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  •   1 cup Tangy Herb Oil

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon zest + juice, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, Aleppo pepper, salt, pepper, honey, and olive oil until smooth and well blended.
  2. Add chicken and toss until fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but honestly, the longer it marinades the better it will be!
  3. Thread chicken onto skewers.
  4. Heat grill or grill pan over medium-high. Cook skewers 4–5 minutes per side, until charred and cooked through (internal temp: 165°F).
  5. Drizzle with tangy herb oil while the skewers are still hot to make it next level!
