Tandoori Malai Kebab

Tandoori Malai Kebab is a creamy and flavorful Indian appetizer made with marinated chicken pieces cooked in a tandoor or oven.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a bowl, combine hung curd, fresh cream, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, kasuri methi, and salt. Mix well to make a smooth marinade.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Coat the chicken pieces well with the marinade. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). If using skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
Brush a baking sheet with oil and place the skewers on it. Alternatively, you can cook the kebabs on a preheated grill or in a tandoor.
Bake the kebabs in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
Remove the kebabs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serve the Tandoori Malai Kebabs hot, garnished with fresh coriander leaves. Accompany with sliced onions and lemon wedges on the side.
