Health benefits of Chicken Thigh Kebabs with Chile-Yogurt Sauce

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.

Ingredients

1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp. sweet paprika
8 boneless, skin-on chicken thighs
1 c. plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. cayenne
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
kosher salt
Pepper
Lemon wedges

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk 1/2 cup of the olive oil with the paprika. Add the chicken and toss to coat; let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the yogurt, lemon juice, cayenne, crushed red pepper, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper and mix well.
Light a grill. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper and thread 3 pieces onto each of 8 skewers. Oil the grate and grill the chicken over moderate heat, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer the skewers to a serving platter and serve with the yogurt sauce and lemon wedges.
