Skewering the marinated chicken between slices of vegetables is a great way to make a quick and easy meal filled with vitamins and nutrients.

Mediterranean Chicken Skewers

Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish; set aside.

For marinade, in a small bowl combine yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, cumin, salt and black pepper. Add marinade to chicken in bag; seal bag. Turn to coat chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours.

Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent from burning. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill with lightly greased grill rack for direct cooking over medium-high heat.

Drain chicken, discarding marinade. Thread chicken, onion, bell peppers and eggplant onto skewers, leaving 1/4-inch space between pieces.

Grill chicken and vegetable skewers for 10 to 12 minutes or until internal temperature of chicken is 165 degrees, turning occasionally. Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
