Equipment

  • 1 baking tray
  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 chopping board
  • 1 knife

Ingredients

  • 3 Chicken fillets
  • 6 tablespoon Yoghurt or curd
  • 2-3 teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon of paprika
  • ½ teaspoon of mixed herbs
  • 2-3 garlic cloves grated
  • ¼ Lemon juice
  • A splash of oil
  • Parsley to garnish

Instructions

  • Soak wooden skewers in water and leave them for 30 minutes while you get the marinade ready.
  • Lay the chicken on a chopping board, cover it with plastic wrap, and pound it with a rolling pin or any blunt object. This process tenderizes the chicken and allows it to cook more quickly. Cut the chicken into cubes of equal size and place them in a bowl.
  • Combine yogurt, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, salt according to taste, mixed herbs, and oil in a bowl and stir. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  • Prepare a baking tray by lining it with foil and spraying it with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Preheat oven to 200C/400fF. Once 30 minutes have passed, place the chicken cubes onto the skewer and position it on the tray.
  • Bake in an oven that has been preheated for 15 minutes on each side. If your oven has a grill setting, you can grill them for an additional 5 minutes to infuse a smoky flavor. Serve these delectable chicken skewers for dinner.

Notes

Oven: Ensure the oven is preheated for a minimum of ten minutes prior to introducing the chicken. This guarantees uniform cooking of the chicken.
Marinade: The marinade can be tailored to suit your taste. Feel free to modify the quantity of each ingredient based on your preference.
Make ahead: These kebabs can be prepared in advance. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking.
