Gather @greek yogurt{150%g}, @sweet paprika{2%tsp} and @dried oregano{1%tsp}.

Cut the @chicken breast{700%g} into even, bite-size cubes so they cook at the same rate.

Mix the yogurt, @garlic{6%clove}, @lemon{1} juice, @tomato paste{1%tbsp}, paprika and oregano into a marinade, then add the chicken and turn to coat fully.

Cover and refrigerate to marinate — 2 hours minimum, up to overnight. ~{2%hours}

Thread the chicken tightly onto skewers, leaving no gaps — snug pieces char evenly.

Grill over high heat for 12 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the edges are deeply charred and the centers are no longer pink. ~{12%minutes}

Slide the chicken off the skewers and serve in flatbread with garlic sauce and pickles.
