Creating the Turkish Chicken Kebab is simple if you follow these clear steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Mix well to ensure all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 1 hour for more flavor).
3. Prepare the Skewers: If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, no preparation is needed.
4. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
5. Assemble the Skewers: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with chunks of bell pepper and onion.
6. Grill the Kebabs: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and has nice grill marks.
7. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
8. Remove from Grill: Once cooked, take the kebabs off the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes.
9. Garnish (Optional): Drizzle with additional lemon juice and sprinkle with fresh parsley or cilantro for added flavor.
