Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Soak the skewers in water for about 30 minutes.

    Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

    In a bowl, combine the zest and juice of 2 lemons, oregano, red pepper flakes, and olive oil. Mash the garlic into a paste with coarse salt, then add 3/4 of the garlic to the marinade, reserving the rest for the sauce. Place the chicken fillets in the marinade, season with salt and pepper, turn them over to coat completely, and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Step 2
  • Thread the meat onto wet skewers and cook for 7-8 minutes, turning once, until the meat is firm and the juices run clear.

    While the kebabs are grilling, puree the yogurt with the juice of the remaining lemon, the remaining garlic clove, the avocado, the grated cucumber, the cumin, and salt to taste. Divide the dipping sauce among 4 ramekins and serve with the finished kebabs.
