Indian Chicken Tikka Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• Put 8 wooden skewers in a bowl of water to soak. Mix the yogurt and curry paste together in a bowl, then add the chicken (if you have time, marinate for an hr or so). In a large bowl, toss together the cucumber, red onion, coriander and lemon juice. Chill until ready to serve.
• Shake off any excess marinade, then thread the chicken pieces and cherry tomatoes onto the pre-soaked skewers. Cook under a medium grill for 15-20 mins, turning from time to time, until cooked through and nicely browned.
• Stir the lettuce or pea shoots into the salad, then divide between 4 plates. Top each serving with 2 chicken tikka skewers and serve with the warm chapatis.

Steps:

• Mix yogurt, tomato paste, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, cumin, coriander, curry, and paprika together in a glass or ceramic bowl. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
• Add chicken to the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Bring chicken to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Skewer on bamboo skewers and place on a baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 20 to 35 minutes, drizzling with melted butter during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
