Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well to form a smooth marinade.

  2. Add the bite-sized chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring each piece is coated evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together.

  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.

  4. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

  5. Brush the chicken skewers with vegetable oil to prevent sticking to the grill.

  6. Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice charred appearance.

  7. Once the chicken is cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.

  8. Garnish the Nawabi Chicken Tikka with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
