Shish Tawook

Ingredients

• 2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tsp sweet paprika
• 1/2 tsp ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp salt

Method

1. Whisk the yogurt, lemon juice, oil, garlic, tomato paste, spices and salt in a large bowl.
2. Add the chicken, toss to coat and refrigerate for 4 hours or up to overnight.
3. Thread the chicken onto skewers, leaving a little space between pieces so they cook evenly.
4. Grill over medium-high heat, turning every few minutes, until charred at the edges and 165°F inside, 10 to 12 minutes.
5. Serve with garlic sauce, pickles, tomatoes and warm flatbread.
