Step 1: Marinade and Chicken ... Add the yogurt, onion, garlic, honey, lemon juice, oil, cayenne pepper or hot sauce, to a small glass (non-reactive) bowl; or, a large ziploc bag, and mix well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, or seal up the bag; and, marinade 4-8 hrs; I don't suggest any longer.
Step 2: Chicken ... Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and marinade, and let it rest to take the chill off. Season the chicken with plenty of salt and pepper. Now, I like to cut mine in cubes at this point and skewer. You can if you want. Just make sure to soak your skewers is using wood ones; at least 15-20 minutes, so they don't burn.
Step 3: Grill ... An inside grill pan works great for this; but, I prefer an outdoor grill if possible. Spray the grill with a non-stick spray, or brush with olive oil and bring to medium high heat. Cook 7-10 minutes until golden brown and you get a nice crust, flip, and cook another 7-10 minutes until golden brown. If you are not sure if it is done, use a meat thermometer, 165 is the magic number. Once they are done, transfer to a serving platter, cover with foil and let them rest 5 minutes before serving.
Step 4: Serve ... This is a very light marinade, so it really goes well with anything. I would suggest some fresh sauteed vegetables or vegetable skewers, and maybe some greek style potato wedges. ENJOY!
