      PREPARATIONS

      Recommended Equipment
      • sharp knife
      • cutting board
      • small bowl
      • medium bowl
      • frying pan

      Chicken

      • If you are using chicken breast, cut it into small pieces. If you are using boneless and skinless chicken thighs, you can also leave them whole.
      • Remove the skin from the 3 garlic cloves.
      • In a bowl, mix together 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp lemon juice.
      • Squeeze the garlic cloves into the bowl with the olive oil and lemon juice. Now add 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp smoked paprika powder, 1/4 tsp turmeric, 1/4 tsp curry powder, 1/8 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper and mix well.
      • Place the chicken in the marinade and mix everything well so that the entire chicken is covered with the marinade.
      • Now place the bowl in the fridge. Leave it in the fridge to marinate for about 30 minutes.

      Salad

      • Meanwhile cut the tomatoes into small pieces.
      • Cut the cucumber into small pieces.
      • Cut the onion into small pieces.
      • Pluck the parsley from the stalks and chop finely.

      Dip

      • Remove the skin from the garlic clove.
      • Stack the mint leaves on top of each other and roll them up. Then cut into rings and chop finely.
      }

      ACTIVE: 10 min

      PASSIVE: 30 min

      COOKING

      1. Place 200g (7 oz.) yogurt in the small bowl. Add the garlic clove with a press. Finally, add 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp finely ground pepper, as well as the finely chopped mint, and mix everything into a creamy dip.

      2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.

      3. Now add the chopped tomato, cucumber and onion pieces and the finely chopped parsley and mix everything into a salad.

      4. When the chicken has finished marinating, heat a large frying pan over a medium heat. It is not necessary to add any more fat, as the chicken already has oil in the marinade. The chicken pieces can now be placed on wooden or metal skewers before frying, but this is not a must. Tip: If you want to use wooden skewers, place them in a bowl of water 1 hour before use so that they can soak up the oil and won’t burn during frying.

      5. Either place the chicken on skewers in the pan or fry them individually. To ensure proper juiciness in chicken so that it does not become dry, turn it only once during frying. When you place the raw chicken in the pan, let it cook on the side over a medium heat until it turns white around the edges, which is the sign that the bottom half is cooked through. Then you can turn it over. Then fry for the same amount of time on the other side.

      6. When the meat is ready, arrange it on two plates, place the salad next to it and serve the mint and garlic sauce separately or spread directly over the chicken.
