CHICKEN RESHMI KABAB


hii frnds,
m back after a long time.i am super busy with collection launch, new job. i am soo happy that finally i get to assist a designer, a well known one. moreover, its not knits but woven. and the worst part is among all these i hardly get time to cook, time for myself. and i also need to carry tiffin, and i hate the regular tiffins.... so had to device some method to keep myself & my tummy happy!!! and this experiment turned out to be a good one.

trust me, it is!! and every one loves chicken, and kabab happens to be an universal favourite. and specially when its a chicken reshmi kabab. and its not the authentic type, it's kinda my version of this kabab. moreover its fat free, its healthy and yummy. and takes very less time and can be made with ingrediants easily available at home. here goes the recipe:

INGREDIANTS:


  • chicken (boneless)                            300gm
  • green chilli paste                               2tsp
  • melon seed paste                              2tbsp
  • salt & black pepper                           to taste
  • red chilli paste                                   1tsp
  • fresh coriander(chopped finely)         1tbsp
  • garam masala powder                       1tsp
  • kasuri methi                                      1tsp
  • cashew paste                                    2tbsp
  • tandooori chicken masala                  1tbsp
  • chaat masala                                     1tsp
  • wooden/metal skewers                      4nos
  • oil                                                     2tbsp
  • butter                                                1tsp


METHOD:


  • cut the chicken pieces into cube.
  • then marinate them with all the above ingrediants and keep aside for around 2hrs.
  • if you are using wooden skewers, then soak them in water for around 10hrs, to save it from burning.
  • insert the chicken pieces in the skewer. putting them close and leaving enough space to hold the skewer from both ends.
  • heat half of the oil & butter in a tawa .
  • now put the skewers in the tawa, and cook all sides till it starts changing colour and the it starts catching colour..
  • after this brush them with the remaining oil & butter & bust them in the gas, the burning fire. till you get that charred smell and marks.make a bit of space between the cubes now, so as to cook the chicken completly, if its still uncooked.
  • now serve hot, after sprinling with some chaat masala. 


thats it... yes guys thats it..... i know its damn easy. i even wrap them in rotis with a yoghurt dip. i generally prepare this dip by mixing yoghurt with cumin powder & salt & black pepper powder. garnish with round cut red onions and serve. i am sure, you will love it, just the way i do. and if you wanna include some veggies, then put in some bellpapers and onion cubes in between the chicken cubes. 
this recipe is also a way of breaking taboo that you need to have an oven or tandoor to cook kabab. but thats not the thing. and if u want to have red kababs, the trick is to add a bit of red food colour. seee you next time. bye.


try it!!!!!!!
