Ingredients
Let’s cook
Add all the marination ingredients in a bowl and whisk until you get a smooth paste. Add the chicken pieces and coat them neatly. Cover using a plastic wrap or a tight lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the grill and sew the chicken and onion cubes on the skewers. Sprinkle crushed dry fenugreek leaves on them before grilling. Place the skewers over medium heat and grill for about 3-4 minutes. Flip to the other side and brush some oil. Grill for another 3-4 minutes until they turn golden with grill marks.
Serve hot with mint chutney, lemon wedges and some pickled onions.
