"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 c. plain unsweetened greek yogurt (like FAGE Plain Greek Yogurt 2%)
1 medium sized onion, grated
3 garlic cloves, minced
juice of ½ lemon
2 tbsp. dried crushed mint
3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 tsp. kosher salt, more if needed
Directions:
Directions:
In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, onion, garlic, lemon, mint and olive oil.

Cut the chicken into 1- to 2-inch pieces and place them in a gallon-sized ziplock plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 8-24 hours. The longer the more flavor!

Soak large wooden skewers in water in advance of grilling for about 30 minutes.

Place the chicken in a colander and wipe off the marinade with paper towels. It is ok if some yogurt is still on the chicken. Thread six skewers with the chicken leaving some breathing room between the pieces. Generously season with salt and pepper.

Grill the chicken over medium-high heat or broil them on a sheet pan until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred, about 10 minutes on the grill and 20 minutes in broiler.

Remove the chicken from the skewers on a platter. Or each guest can take a skewer and add to their plate of salad, labneh, roasted za'atar tomatoes and pita bread.
