Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs chicken thighs (boneless & skinless)
  • ½ tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 lemon (juiced)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Method
 

  1. Slice the chicken thighs into 2-3 inch pieces, trimming any excess fat.
  2. In a bowl, combine honey, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, juice of half a lemon, vegetable oil, and soy sauce. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss well to coat. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  4. While the chicken marinates, thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
  5. Grill the kabobs over medium-high heat for about 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through.
  6. Serve hot with reserved lemon wedges.

Notes

- For best results, marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
- Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Don't overcrowd the grill; cook in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking and charring.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to prevent burning.
