Let's cook.

01

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the minced chicken, chopped onion, crushed coriander seeds, cumin powder, chili flakes, salt, breadcrumbs, egg, ginger garlic paste, and coriander leaves. Mix everything well until it’s all evenly combined.

Step 2

Lightly grease your hands with a little oil and shape the mixture into medium-sized kebabs.

Heat some oil in a pan over medium-low heat and fry the kebabs until they’re golden brown on all sides. Once cooked, take them off the heat and set them aside.

In another pan, melt the butter, then add the tomato paste. Cook it for a couple of minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with a bit of salt and pepper.

Why you’ll love it

These skewers are juicy and full of flavor. They cook quickly and are perfect for a weeknight meal or a weekend barbecue. The marinade helps keep the chicken tender and adds a delicious taste.

Serving ideas

Serve with a fresh salad or grilled vegetables for a balanced meal. A side of rice or warm pita bread also pairs nicely. Add a tangy dipping sauce like tzatziki or a spicy yogurt dip for extra flavor.

Storage & leftovers

Store leftover skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep well for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or on the grill to keep the chicken moist.
