Making Turkish Chicken Kebabs is simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
3. Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, you can skip this step.
4. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).
5. Skewer the Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
6. Grill the Kebabs: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
7. Check for Doneness: The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). If using a meat thermometer, check the thickest piece.
8. Rest the Kebabs: Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
9. Garnish: Optionally, sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley or mint over the kebabs for added flavor and color.

These steps will guide you in creating mouthwatering Turkish chicken kebabs that are sure to impress.
