Prepare the marinade by mixing 3 tablespoons yogurt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon tomato paste, 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder, 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder, black pepper, and salt.

Mix the marinade well and add in 500 grams of chicken, ensuring it is well coated.

For best results, marinate the chicken overnight in the fridge, or at least for 5 minutes.

Cut the marinated chicken into pieces and prepare to thread onto skewers, alternating with onion and bell pepper.

Grill the chicken on one side for 15-20 minutes, then turn and add vegetables to the grill, brushing with oil as needed.
