Dinner couldn’t be simpler than this do-it-yourself array of food. It’s a fun, interactive way to enjoy a fresh and simple meal: Arrange all the components on a platter and let everyone assemble their own dish.

A zesty marinade and creamy tzatziki do the heavy lifting in this recipe, infusing the chicken with juicy flavor, lemony citrus, and a kick of spice. Cutting the chicken in chunks and threading them on skewers provides more surface area for the meat to soak in the marinade and creates lots of little edges to crisp while grilling. Tzatziki is a garlicky Greek yogurt-and-cucumber sauce that provides a slick of creaminess to the chicken and pita.
