Ingredients

  • 4 Chicken Breasts diced evenly into 1" pieces
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 1/2 Lemon Juiced
  • 1/2 Lemon Zested
  • 2 tbsp. Fresh Dill minced
  • 2-3 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • Serve with- Low carb pita olives, cucumbers, red onion, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce.

Instructions

  • 1. In a bowl combine the sour cream, olive oil, lemon juice and zest, fresh dill, minced garlic, and salt and pepper.
  • 2. Add in the diced chicken and use your hands to mix everything very well and then cover and store in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • 3. Before grilling, soak wooden skewers at least 30 min ahead of time. Prep the grill for two zone cooking (direct and indirect heat) and heat to 425 F. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place a rack over top.
  • 4. Skewer the chicken so there is a little space between each piece for even cooking. Place on the elevated rack and repeat.
  • 5. Place the baking sheet with the chicken skewers onto the cooler side (indirect) of the grill. Cook until the internal temperature is around 145-150 F. This could take around 15-20 minutes depending on how cold the chicken was before grilling. Grilling indirect first allows the marinade to stay on the chicken and not end up all over your grill!
  • 6. Move the chicken to the direct side of the grill and rotate every minute to get a nice even char. Cook at this stage until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F.
  • 7. Remove from the grill and serve with your favorite Mediterranean style veggies, tzatziki sauce, and low carb pitas or with Greek cauliflower rice.

Notes

Dairy free/ Paleo/ or Whole 30? Use coconut yogurt or canned coconut milk instead for your marinade for compliant substitutes.
