Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F and start fries according to package directions on a sheet pan.
Step 2
Cut chicken breasts into 1.5-inch chunks. Toss with lemon juice, zest, oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Step 3
Thread chicken onto skewers. Heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high until smoking.
Step 4
Sear skewers 3 minutes per side without moving—edges should char and centers stay juicy.
Step 5
Whisk yogurt with minced garlic, dill, salt, and pepper. Serve skewers with fries and yogurt dip.
