Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1 tbsp grated peeled fresh ginger
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1/4 tsp ground turmeric
1/4 tsp saffron threads, crushed
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground cloves
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 lb skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 8 oz)
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 8 oz)
1 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 8 oz)
cooking spray
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1/3 cup diced seeded tomato
1/4 cup cucumber, peeled, seeded, grated, and squeezed dry
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 tbsp minced seeded jalapeno pepper
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp salt

Directions:

To prepare kebabs, combine the first 12 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal and marinate in refrigerator overnight, turning bag occasionally.
Prepare grill.
Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Thread chicken, onion, bell pepper, and zucchini alternately on each of 8 (12-inch) wooden skewers. Coat kebabs with cooking spray, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Place kebabs on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 25 minutes or until chicken is done, turning occasionally. Remove from grill; keep warm.
