Greek Lemon Chicken Skewers with Tzatziki Sauce

Step 1

Whisk together all of the ingredients except the chicken in a bowl. Add the chicken and the marinade to a freezer bag. Press out the air and seal the bag. Massage the marinade into the chicken and let it marinate for at least an hour.

Step 2

Heat the grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, thread the chicken onto metal or wooden skewers. If using wooden skewers be sure to soak them in water for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Oil grill grates or grill pan and place the chicken skewers on them. Grill the chicken for 3-4 minutes then flip it over and grill for another 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 4

Take the shredded cucumber and use your hands to squeeze out the excess liquid. You can also place it in a clean dish towel or paper towels and squeeze out the liquid.

Step 5

Place the cucumber into a bowl along with the remaining tzatziki ingredients. Stir together until combined. Taste for seasoning and add any additional lemon juice, salt and pepper as needed. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
