Ingredients
For the kabobs
- 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 1 cup Greek dressing
- 3 garlic cloves finely minced or grated
- 1 red bell pepper cut into 1” pieces
- 1 lemon thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
For serving
- 2 lemons halved and grilled
- 1 cup Tzatziki sauce
- 4 ounces black or kalamata olives
- 1 cucumber thinly sliced
- ½ red onion thinly sliced
- 2 tomatoes cored and sliced thick
- 4 ounces crumbled Feta cheese
- 4 lices pita bread warmed and cut into triangles
- fresh dill for garnish
Instructions
- Place the cubed chicken into a 1 gallon ziptop bag. Add the Greek dressing, garlic, salt, and pepper. Squeeze out the air from the bag, seal tightly, and massage the marinade into the chicken. Let marinate for 30 minute at room temperature or for up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
- Soak 8-10 wooden skewers in hot water for 30 minutes while the chicken marinates.
- Preheat grill to medium high heat.
- Fill skewers by alternating chicken, folded lemon slice, and bell pepper.
- Grill chicken skewers for 5 minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through. While grilling chicken, grill the lemon halves, cut side down, until charred.
- Assemble the platter by arranging Tzatziki sauce, olives, cucumber, onion, tomato, feta, pita, and any remaining bell pepper chunks; leaving space for the chicken skewers.
- Add chicken skewers and grilled lemons to the platter, garnish with fresh dill and serve immediately.

Notes
- Include any veggies you love, omit the ones you don’t. Other ingredients you could include: zucchini, iceberg or romaine lettuce, hummus, olive oil, extra Greek dressing.
- Marinade in a plastic bag to make clean-up a breeze!
- No skewers, or short on time? Toss the chicken and peppers into a grill basket and grill for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
