This is one of my favorite easy summer dinners. Make it with steak or shrimp for a change.

Ingredients:
  • For the chicken:
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • For the kabobs:
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 red onion
  • For the Tzatziki sauce:
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1  cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp fresh mint and/or dill
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 medium clove garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1-2 tsp olive oil to drizzle
  • ​Serve with Pita bread 
Instructions:
  1. Begin by cutting the chicken into approximately 1 1/2-inch cubes. Place the chicken cubes in a large bowl.
  2. Add olive oil, lemon juice, dijon mustard, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the chicken.
  3. Mix the chicken and marinade together until well combined.
  4. Allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
  5. While the chicken is marinating, cut the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion into 2x2 inch pieces, which will be used for skewering later.
  6. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  7. Take skewers and assemble them by alternating the marinated chicken cubes, bell pepper pieces, and red onion pieces. Leave a small space between each ingredient on the skewer.
  8. You should be able to make approximately 8 skewers in total.
  9. Place the assembled skewers on the preheated grill.
  10. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have become tender.
  11. Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill.
  12. Serve the kabobs with tzatziki sauce and any additional sides you prefer, such as potatoes, rice, or quinoa.
  13. This recipe serves 4 people, with each person having 2 kabobs.
To make the Tzatziki Sauce: 
  1. Place the grated cucumber in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out any excess moisture from the cucumber.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and chopped dill.
  3. Stir the ingredients together until well combined.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preferences.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the tzatziki sauce for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
  6. Before serving, give the sauce a quick stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  7. Serve the tzatziki sauce as a dipping sauce for the chicken kabobs or any other dish of your choice.

​Enjoy!
