Puree the garlic, onion, spices, lemon juice and yogurt in the container of a blender or food processor.
Cut the chicken or beef into skewer-size pieces and place in a non-aluminum container; cover with the marinade. Turn well to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 4-24 hours.
If using beef, you may smoke the marinaded meat for one hour before threading onto the skewers.
Cut the vegetables into skewer-size pieces. Thread the meat and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. Brush on olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place on grill or under broiler and cook about 2-3 minutes per side or until done.
