Shish Taouk (Chicken Skewers)
Yogurt-marinated chicken breast cubes grilled on skewers, served with garlic sauce and pickled turnips.
Why It Works
Yogurt marinade's lactic acid tenderizes lean breast meat while tomato paste adds sweetness and color. The high-heat grill chars the yogurt coating for extra flavor.
