Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 scallions
1/4 cup packed fresh dill
1/4 cup packed fresh parsley
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the grill
Kosher salt
Pinch of red pepper flakes
8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 5 ounces each)
1 lemon, cut into 8 wedges
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup plain whole-milk yogurt

Steps:

  • Cut the white and light green parts of the scallions into 1 1/2-inch pieces; set aside. Chop the dark green parts and transfer to a blender. Add the dill, parsley, olive oil, 3 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon salt and puree until smooth. Stir in the red pepper flakes. Remove 2 tablespoons of the puree to a small bowl for the sauce; refrigerate until ready to use. Transfer the remaining puree to a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent scorching. Preheat a grill to medium. Thread 2 chicken thighs onto double skewers, placing lemon wedges and scallion pieces between the thighs; season the kebabs generously with salt and pepper. Oil the grill grates. Grill the kebabs until the chicken is lightly charred and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
  • Mix the yogurt with the reserved scallion puree and season with salt. Cut the chicken in half to separate each pair of skewers. Squeeze the grilled lemon over the chicken; serve with the yogurt sauce.
