Servings: 3 people
Ingredients
- 250 grams chicken boneless cubes
- 2 to 3 tablespoons greek yogurt (thick curd / hung curd)
- 2 tablespoons oil (olive oil or sesame oil)
- salt as needed
- 1½ tablespoons lemon juice
- ¾ teaspoon garam masala or a mix of ground cumin, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, pepper, coriander
- 1 to 1½ teaspoon ginger garlic paste
- ¾ to 1 teaspoon red chilli powder (or paprika)
- 1 medium onion cubed and layers separated
Instructions
Marination for chicken kabab
- Ensure chicken is free from excess moisture. Drain it completely.
- Mix all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
- Taste the marinade and add more salt & spice if needed.
- Marinate the chicken well and rub each piece for few seconds.
- Cover completely. Refrigerate for over night or at least 4 hours. Resting tenderizes the chicken and it absorbs flavors well.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for a while. Line the chicken and onions alternately on the skewers.
Making chicken kebab
- Preheat the oven to 240 C for minimum 15 to 20 mins.
- Place them in a tray and grill for 15 mins. After 15 mins,
- Flip them and grill for another 15 mins.
- The last 5 mins, move the tray to the top rack or broil.
- At this stage you can brush some butter or oil over the kababs if you prefer.
- Serve chicken kebab hot with mint raita or chutney.
