1 (5.3 oz) container Hy-Vee plain Greek yogurt | ||
⅓ c. fresh lemon juice | ||
3 clove(s) garlic, minced | ||
½ tsp. paprika | ||

½ tsp. Hy-Vee salt | ||

Directions
- 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.
