Equipment

  • 5 skewers

Ingredients

  • 400 g chicken thighs deboned
  • 2 pcs onions medium sized
  • 1 pc bell pepper orange or red colour
  • 100 g pork fat smoked

Marinade

  • 1 tsp sea salt kosher
  • ½ tsp ground pepper freshly ground
  • ½ tsp onion granules
  • ½ tsp garlic granules
  • ½ tsp sumac
  • ½ tsp caraway powder
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt full fat

Instructions

  • Cut the chicken thighs into equal-sized pieces about 1-inch thick. Cut the onion, pepper, and bacon into equal-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Put the chicken cubes in a bowl, and add the olive oil, sea salt, ground pepper, caraway powder, ground coriander, garlic granules, onion granules, sumac, lemon juice and Greek Yoghurt. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, alternating with onion wedges, bell pepper pieces, and cubes of smoked pork fat.
  • Place the kebabs on the baking tray with rack, leaving a bit of space between them.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes at 200 C Fan (392 F), rotate the kebabs and put it back for another five minutes, this time at 200 C (392 F) with the grill function.
  • Let the chicken kebabs rest for a few minutes before serving, to become more soft and juicy.

Notes

You can add on the skewers tomatoes, zucchini, eggplants, or even fruits like peaches, apples, or pineapple.
To prevent the chicken from drying out, place the pieces of smoked pork fat next to the chicken cubes.
If you use wooden skewers, you must soaking this in water for at least 30 minutes.
