Shish Tawook Recipe (middle Eastern Grilled Chicken Skewers)
  1. Whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice, oil, tomato paste, garlic, paprika, salt, allspice, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).

  2. Thread the chicken onto skewers. I like to divide the chicken onto 6 skewers so each serving gets 1 skewer.

  3. Preheat a grill to medium-high. Grill the chicken until fully cooked, flipping occasionally, about 12 minutes. Chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165F in the thickest part, and the juices run clear.

  4. Remove the chicken from the grill. Serve.
