For the marinade
- 2 tbsp garlic-infused oil
- ¾ cup plain lactose-free yogurt
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 ½ tsp ground cumin
- 1 ½ tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground turmeric

For the kebabs
- 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 ½-inch pieces
- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1 ½-inch pieces
- 1 tbsp neutral oil (such as canola or sunflower oil), for brushing
Chef's tipAvocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.
For serving
- 3 scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced (optional)
- lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
