Why This Recipe Works

  • These kabobs are a flavor bomb!
  • The marinating time is only 2 hours and made with everyday pantry ingredients.
  • They only take about 15 minutes to cook on the grill.
  • They are a great change from the standard grilling fare of burgers and chicken wings.
  • Great for entertaining or for a casual family dinner. You can serve it as a dinner or a heavy appetizer.

Ingredients to make whipped feta

Let’s Make Greek Chicken Kabobs with Whipped Feta Cheese

  1. Cut chicken breasts into medium-sized cubes
  2. Place the cubed chicken and the marinade ingredients into a small bowl, mix, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  3. Preheat indoor or outdoor grill to 400°
  4. When chicken is fully marinated, slide the cubes onto long skewers leaving a small bit of room between each piece so the chicken cooks on all sides.
  5. Place skewers on grill and grill for 20 minutes, flipping at the 10-minute mark. Watch them for doneness starting at 15 minutes as all grills are different.

  1. While the chicken is marinating make the whipped feta.
  2. Place the feta, yogurt, and pepper into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape down the side of the bowl 2-3 times during the blending process.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl and stir in 1 teaspoon of the sun-dried tomato juice from the jar.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.

To Build the Platter

  1. Spread the whipped feta cheese on the platter.
  2. Drizzle the feta with 1 tablespoon of the juice from the sun-dried tomato jar.
  3. Chop 5-6 sun-dried tomatoes and place them in the center of the whipped feta.
  4. Place the skewers on the platter and top with a few of the chopped sun-dried tomato pieces.
  5. Garnish with fresh oregano and serve with sliced cucumber, olives, and pita bread.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

  • I recommend spraying metal skewers with non-stick cooking spray before skewering the chicken cubes. If you are using bamboo skewers, soak them in a tall glass of water for 30-40 minutes so they don’t burn on the grill.
  • Don’t over-marinate the chicken.
  • They turn out great on both an outdoor grill and an indoor grill.
  • No grill? No problem! Bake the chicken kabobs in the oven at 400° for 20-25 minutes for an internal temperature of 165°.
  • This recipe is very flexible – substitute the chicken for beef, pork, or lamb.
