Chicken Kabab Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Marinade:

• 1 lb (450 g) boneless chicken (thighs or breasts), cut into cubes
• 1 cup plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika or chili powder (adjust to taste)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: 1 teaspoon garam masala

For Skewering:

• Bell peppers, cut into chunks
• Onion, cut into chunks
• Cherry tomatoes (optional)
• Wooden or metal skewers (if using wooden, soak in water for 30 minutes)

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Chicken:

   • In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, vegetable oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
   • Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for more flavor.

2. Prepare the Skewers:

   • Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat.
   • Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes if using.

3. Grill the Kababs:

   • Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

4. Serve:

   • Remove from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve with naan or rice, and your favorite chutney or sauce. Garnish with fresh cilantro and lemon wedges.

Tips:

• You can also bake the kababs in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minute.....See More
