Make the Marinade

Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for better flavor.

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

Prepare the Skewers

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers, packing them tightly but not too tightly to allow for even cooking.

Skewer the Chicken

Preheat the Grill

Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

Grill the Chicken

On a serving platter, warm the pita bread slightly on the grill or in the oven.

Prepare the Serving Plate
