4.  Add vegetables and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes or until they become tender but
     crisp, making sure you stir and toss frequently so that the vegetables get
     evenly cooked. Cook the vegetables on high heat because vegetables contain
     lot of water and you want water to evaporate quickly and not to overcook the
​     vegetables.

10. Stir chicken well so that chicken pieces get well coated with oil. Stir fry for
    8 to 10 minutes or until chicken become tender and you do not see any pin
    inside, making sure you stir constantly. Chicken and marinade contain lot
​   of water keep the heat on high so that water evaporates quickly.

    chicken is cooking and mix and stir fry 2 to 3 minutes, turn the stove off.

      some
 coriander chutney  (Green chutney or Dhaniya chutney) with it.

Tips: 

1. Use a cast-iron heavy skillet with deep sides. The heavy pan  provides more
    even cooking and gives a nice texture to chicken kebabs. 

2. Cook chicken and vegetables on high heat.

2. Little planning  makes this dish a healthy meal. You can change the taste of this
    dish by changing the mixture of vegetables.

3. Cook this dish without the vegetables and serve it as a snack with cocktails.
