The Chew: Yogurt-Marinated Chicken Kebobs
Daphne Oz explained that she wanted to make her Yogurt-Marinated Chicken Kebobs because they’re fast and easy! Plus, they’re a great way to make a light meal that your kids will love! Daphne joked that it was almost a sin to use chicken breasts on the show, but the Greek yogurt marinade helped to keep the chicken moist, since breasts tend to dry out. She turned the chicken into flavor-packed kebobs that come out golden brown. She also stole Mario Batali and Dan Churchill’s Salsa Verde to serve alongside the kebobs!
