Chicken kebabs could be served as appetizer and as a main course. As an appetizer they are usually served on the bed of thin sliced raw onion rings garnish with lemon juice and with coriander or mint chutney. As a meal they can be served rolled in thin flat roti or roomali roti or all purpose or whole wheat tortillas, along with thin sliced onions, green chilies garnish with lemon juice and coriander leaves. They are also served as a meal with brown onion rice.

2      Medium size onions
1      Tablespoon minced garlic
1½ ’ long ½ “thick slice of fresh ginger

How to Grind the chicken:

1.  If you don't find minced chicken at the store, then you can grind chicken at
​     home. Buy boneless skinless chicken thighs.

2. Wash the chicken thighs well, pat dry them with a paper towel. (If you do not
​     want to wash Chicken then you can skip this step)

 3. With a scissors or a sharp knife cut away any tendons from the chicken.
    Cut the chicken into pieces. 
By cutting the chicken into small pieces allows for
    easier, quicker grinding. Leave some fat on the chicken. That extra fat will help
​    to keep the kebabs tender.

4. Place the Chicken pieces into blender, chopper or food processor and grind it.        Check through ground chicken for larger chunks. If there are any chunks,
    transfer them back to the food processor and process until ground. Pull out if
​    there are any tendons in the ground chicken.

Directions to marinate the chicken:

Coriander leaves and grind to make a coarse paste.

2.  Coarse onions mix will leave lot of water so try to take the water out before
     adding to the ground chicken. Too much moisture might prevent the chicken
     from binding properly.  

3. Take a lemon squeezer and place onion mix in it and squeeze out as much
​    water as you can. You can, use this liquid in another dish.

      cumin powder, seekh kebab barbecue mix, yogurt and salt and mix. If you
      like very spicy then add more chopped green chilies 
or chili powder and mix.

6. If using a charcoal grill, then light the charcoals and let the grill become
    medium hot.

7.  If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, keep the lid close. When the grill
     become hot reduce the heat to medium.

8. If the grill in not clean then once the grill becomes hot with a wire brush clean 
​    the grill.

9. Place the skewers on the Barbecue grill. Keep them approximately 3” apart
    leaving space to turn them while cooking.

Close the lid of the grill
10. When you first place the skewers onto the grill don’t touch them. Close the lid
      of
 your Barbecue grill and let the kebabs cook for a little (3-4 minutes). This
      will
 steam and cook the kebabs more thoroughly in the center which will make
​     the kebabs more solid and easier to work with when it is ready to be flipped. 

11. When you are ready to flip it, test how solid it is by poking it, if it’s mushy
     it’s not ready to be flipped and moving it might rip the skewers right out of
     the kebabs. If it feels like it is a bit more solid, you can flip it. At this point,
     you no longer need to use the lid, and instead will want to keep the lid off so
    you can brown the chicken better. 

12. If you can’t flip the kebabs easily off the grill, use a metal spatula to scrape
​      the bottom of the BBQ grate to gently loosen it first before flipping it.

13. Let the kebabs cook for 2 to 3 minutes then turn the skewers slowly to the
      uncooked side and let them cook. Keep turning the skewers after every   
      after every 2 to 3 minutes for 8 to 10 minutes or until kebabs are cooked.   

14. Apply some melted butter or oil over kebabs.

15. Do not turn the skewers around too quickly, as this caused the chicken to
      come off the skewers and fall down into fire. Do not overcook the kebabs
      as the kebabs will become hard.

​ 16. When kebab are done take them off from skewers, place them in serving
        plate,
 sprinkle some lemon juice, serve kebabs hot with onion rings
        and 
coriander chutney.          

​
17.  You can also cut the kebabs into bite size pieces and serve them as snack
​        with chutney.

​Tips:

1. Kebabs could be cooked in oven instead of barbecues grill. On the baking
    
tray, lay skewers across and cook on 400 degree.

3.  Once the Chicken Kebabs are all well cooked. Transfer them on a clean dry
      dry plate or container.

     *     Arrange them on a single layer. Avoid over crowding by all means.
     *    Cover the Kebabs loosely with an aluminum foil or cling wrap.
     *   When you cover the chicken minced kebabs loosely you’ll have just the
           right amount of air circulation that won’t dry out the kebabs, and will not
           sweat  them off. It will help to keep lock the juices & keep them nice and
          juicy.
4. Most of the time while grilling kebabs started falling apart over the flames. In that case you  can add some corn flour or bread crumbs. 

5. If All Else Fails, Don’t Use Skewers 
   
​ Who said it was a hard rule that we have to use skewers? Make a oval roll and cook on the grill or pan! Sure, it’s a lot more flipping since you’ll be flipping each roll one by one but that’s not really such a big deal is it?  Just turn the rolls around with the thongs gently until they get cooked.

​6..If you do not have lemon squeezer then you can squeeze the water out by     
    squeezing in between your palm or take a piece of cloth or double layer of
    paper towel, transfer mixture to the cloth, fold cloth over mixture and press 
​    gently to start extracting liquid. Lift up towels and form a bundle. Squeeze
    gently over sink to remove excess liquid


7. If there is liquid left in onion mix then dry the liquid by using a paper towel.
