1

Prepare the Chicken

Cut the chicken breasts into 2-inch pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Make the Marinade

In a separate bowl, mix together yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.

3

Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Skewer the Ingredients

Once the chicken has marinated, thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes.

Grill the Kebabs

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the kebabs for about 10-15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
