Lebanese Sheesh Tawouk *updated* - family secret easy recipe of chicken kebabs

Lebanese Shish Tawouk - Chicken Kebabs
(Serves 4-6)
According to Wikipedia, Shish Tawouk originally came from Ottoman cuisine, which is the traditional way of marinating chicken breast meat & adopted by Middle East, with each country making their own version of flavours. This is our beloved family-secret recipe by my late father & has a couple of secret ingredients 🙏🌹❤️
🆈🅾︎🆄 🅽🅴🅴🅳:
1 kg chicken breasts cubes in 3cm sizes
1 small onion, peeled & sliced
2 tbsp tomato ketchup
1 tbsp tomato puree
Juice & zest of 2 lemons
3 fat cloves of garlic, crushed
3 tbsp sunflower oil or olive oil
1 tsp sweet paprika
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp ground white pepper
1 tsp dried parsley
2 tsp seasalt
2 tbsp yoghurt or 1/2 cup milk (200g pineapple chunks if lactose intolerant)
🍢Put everything into a bowl, mix together well & marinade in fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
🍢When ready to cook, turn on the grill to warm up on low heat. If using wooden kebab sticks, place the sticks in cold water for 15 mins to stop burning. Or use metal Shish kebab sticks.
🍢With Shish kebab sticks, using gloves, take a piece of chicken & stick this through the skewer, put maybe 5 or 6 pieces & push together but leave a little space to cook it well. Add to grill, cook for 3 mins on each side, keep doing this until cooked. Approx total cooking 15-30 mins.
🍅You may add tomatoes or vegetables to grill, coat with light olive oil & salt.
🍢Please make sure to check chicken is cooked & transfer to serving dish when ready. Leave them to rest, wrapped in foil, for 5 or 10 mins. Serve with bread & salad & garlic sauce.
