Fresh Rec Stop Recipe: Mediterranean Chicken Skewers

By Garrett Simpson, NASM-CNC, Community Health Leader

Mediterranean chicken skewers are the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition. The Greek yogurt tenderizes the chicken while providing protein, probiotics, and calcium for gut and bone health. The chicken provides high quality protein, iron, and zinc to support muscle function and immunity. The blend of cumin and Chile flakes adds antioxidants to aid in digestion as well as heart health. The lemon juice will brighten the flavor as well as provide vitamin C. Serve this with quinoa, rice, or on a salad for a perfectly balanced Mediterranean inspired meal.
