Spiced Chicken Kebabs with Chopped Salad and Flatbreads

by BBC Good Food

Marinate chicken in yogurt, spices and lemon zest, then grill to make these flavourful chicken skewers. Serve in flatbreads with salad and cucumber yogurt

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

In a bowl, combine half the yoghurt with the ground spices, half the garlic, the lemon zest and a little salt. Tip in the chicken and stir well to coat. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 30 mins or overnight.

Step 2

Grate half the cucumber and squeeze out a majority of the liquid before mixing with the remaining garlic and yoghurt, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside in the fridge.

Step 3

Finely chop the remaining cucumber and mix with the lettuce. Squeeze over a little lemon juice and season with a good pinch of salt. Cut the remaining lemon into quarters. Heat the grill to high or a large griddle pan over a high heat.

Step 4

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto metal skewers, put on a tray and cook under a hot grill or in the griddle pan for 10-12 mins, turning often to ensure it cooks evenly and is charred in places. Warm the flatbreads under the grill or in a toaster.

Step 5

Serve the chicken in the flatbreads with the chopped salad and cucumber yoghurt. Drizzle with hot sauce before serving (if you wish) and the lemon wedges.
