Method by step by step
Preparation:
1. First prepare marination .
Make sure you had drained water from chicken. Curd is the key ingredient to tenderize the chicken . So do not skip it.
2. Add all ingredients except except butter into a mixing bowl. Marinate the chicken pieces with curd, fresh cream and spices. Cover and keep it in refrigerator for minimum 1 hour. Keep overnight if you have time.
3. Grilling / Baking / roasting.
Rinse the skewer in water or keep it in water for 10 minutes. It prevent the chicken pieces stick into skewer after grilling.
3. Preheat oven at 180 C / 356 F . Insert the chicken pieces into skewer .
4. Grill the chicken for 15 to 20 minutes and flip it over . Grill for another 10 to 15 minutes. Apply butter on chicken pieces. It enhance the flavor . Its optional .
5. Remove chicken kabab from oven. You can take out the kabab from skewer with a fork.
6. Serve it with lime pieces and onion and green chutney / Sauce of your choice. Enjoy !!!
Note:
1. You can roast Chicken on a tawa / iron skillet also. If you don't have skewer then roast / grill the chicken pieces directly.
2. You can skip fresh cream also. But I highly recommend to add this.
3. You increase / decrease the amount of chilli according to your taste.
4. Marinate it for 4 to 8 hours for better taste.
5. You can grind coriander leaves / mint leaves and add it while marinating chicken.
