Instructions

1
In a large bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp lemon juice, minced garlic (for the chicken), dried oregano, ground cumin, smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and black pepper until combined. Add the chicken pieces and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
2
While the chicken marinates, make the tzatziki. Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater, then transfer to a fine-mesh strainer or a piece of cheesecloth. Squeeze firmly to remove as much liquid as possible — the cucumber should feel nearly dry.
