  • (100 grams)Red Onion (cut into wedges)
  • 1 1 small (60 grams)Cracked
  • 1/4 Black Pepper

For Marinade

  • 1 1/2 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 Small Red Chilli, Finely Chopped
  • 1 tbsp Grated Ginger
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Zest
  • 90 g Full-Fat Greek Yoghurt
  • 1/2 tbsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tbsp Cumin

  • 1/4 tbsp Saffron Strands
  • 1/4 tbsp Sea Salt, as per taste

To serve

  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Optional Crispy greens, Zucchini Ribbons and Pine Nuts

Instructions
 

  • First, dice the chicken into approximately 2 cm/1-inch cubes.
  • Prepare a paste combining the garlic, chili, and ginger and using a blender.
  • Now, take a bowl and place the diced chicken and prepared paste into a bowl.
  • After that, incorporate it with lemon juice and zest, yogurt, spices, and proper seasoning into the bowl. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly to prepare the chicken marinade.
  • Now, leave the marinade chicken in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight to enhance the flavor.
  • After that, take the chicken out of the refrigerator and allow it to reach room temperature.
  • Now, make zucchini ribbons using a vegetable peeler.
  • Thread metal skewers with chicken, zucchini ribbons, and red onion.
  • Prepare a baking tray by lining it with greaseproof paper. Place the kebabs on the tray and grill them for approximately 20 to 25 minutes, or until they become crispy and thoroughly cooked, turn every 5 – 10 minutes.
  • Ensure the tray isn’t too close to the top of the grill to prevent charring. To prevent charring, ensure that the tray is positioned at a safe distance from the top of the grill.
  • Add a gentle drizzle of olive oil over the kebabs. For an optional serving suggestion, pair them with crispy greens, zucchini ribbons, and pine nuts.
  • These delectable kebabs are ideally enjoyed fresh, but can also be stored in the refrigerator and savoured the next day.
