Middle Eastern Chicken Kebabs

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups plain low fat yogurt

  • 1/2 cup chopped parsley

  • 2 Tbs prepared hummus

  • 1 Tbs minced garlic

  • 1 tsp ground turmeric

  • 1 tsp ground cumin

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed into 24 (1 1/2-inch) pieces

  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 24 (1-inch) chunks

  • 24 olives, whole, pitted

Hummus and traditional Middle Eastern seasoning give this dish enticing flavor.

Directions

  • Whisk together 1/2 cup yogurt, 1/4 cup parsley and hummus in a small mixing bowl. Cover, refrigerate and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine remaining yogurt and parsley with the garlic, turmeric and cumin. Toss chicken into mixture until evenly coated. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Assemble kebabs by threading 8 (12-inch) skewers with three olives, three red onion chunks and three pieces of chicken in an alternating pattern. Season assembled skewers with salt and grill over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes until cooked through, turning to brown evenly on each side. Transfer cooked skewers to serving plates accompanied with approximately 1/4 cup of yogurt hummus dipping sauce.
