Notes
I cut my chicken breasts into 2.5cm pieces, but you could have it a little bigger or smaller.
I used dried herbs for marinating the chicken. You could also use fresh or just like me have fresh for sprinkling over when done.
For a more lemon option cook the lemon on the skewers with the chicken.
If you’re not confident thinly slicing garlic I suggest that instead you use a garlic press. It does an excellent job and then just thinly slice the excess that is left in your press after you are done.
We only use a very small amount of coconut oil and Greek yoghurt. This keeps it very moist and flavoursome and a little goes a long way.
