Description
Shish Tawook (taouk) is a traditional Turkish shish kebab which can also be found in Syrian and Lebanese cuisine. Cubes of chicken are marinated and grilled. Common marinades are based upon Greek yogurt and tomato paste, though there are many variations.
Cut chicken into 3 inch cubes, add all other ingredients except olive oil and butter. Cover and let marinate in refrigerator for 3-4 hours. Heat grill to med/high heat, in a small bowl add 3 tbs olive oil and melted butter. Place chicken on the hot grill, after turning once start brushing with olive oil butter mixture, cook on each side turning as necessary until chicken is browned with grill marks and to internal temp. of 165 degrees.
This is my variation, it is traditionally done as Shish kabobs. I used double concentrated tomato paste but regular would be fine.
