Instructions

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, grated garlic, and tomato paste. Mix in salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, and oregano until smooth.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and stir until thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for better flavor.
Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers without packing them too tightly for even cooking.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Cook the skewers for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through.

Notes

For extra tenderness, let the chicken marinate overnight.
Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
Serve with a side of salad or rice for a complete meal.
