INGREDIENTS
FOR CHICKEN
1 1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1″ pieces
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
6 cloves garlic, smashed
1 tbsp. dried oregano DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, season chicken well with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Add oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano, and toss to coat. Cover and let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or place in the refrigerator and marinate for up to 24 hours.
Meanwhile, make tzatziki: In a medium bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, cucumber, garlic, and dill. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Refrigerate until ready to use.
When ready to cook, if using wooden skewers, soak skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Carefully, thread chicken onto skewers.
