Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) dried oregano leaves
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) finely grated lemon zest
  • 3/4 tsp (4 ml) each salt and pepper
  • 1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground paprika
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
  • Tzatziki sauce

Preparation

Whisk the oil with the lemon juice, oregano, lemon zest, salt, pepper, paprika and garlic in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Thread the chicken into 20 cm wooden skewers.

Select the "Poultry" program and press "OK". Lightly grease the cooking plates with cooking spray. Once the purple indicator light has stopped flashing, place the skewers on the grill and close the lid.

Cook, in batches, until the indicator light has changed to the color red. Serve the chicken skewers with tzatziki sauce on the side.

Tips: Serve the skewers on a bed of cooked, seasoned rice, with a Greek salad. Serve the chicken on a pita topped with tzatziki, chopped tomatoes, cucumber and red onion for a traditional Mediterranean wrap.
