Description

As a big fan of yogurt based marinades for chicken (for example chicken tikka), this one immediately caught my eye. Unlike tikka, you only marinate this one for 30-45 minutes so it doesn't require much planning ahead. I have not tried this one yet but wanted to make it public for the zaar world tour. Cooking time include time to marinate the chicken.

  • Tomatoes
  • Bamboo Skewers
  • Lemon
  • Parsley

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken breasts into 1 inch cubes, 16 in total
  2. Combine the yogurt, salt, turmeric, mustard, curry powder, cardamon, lemon juice and vinegar in a non reactive bowl
  3. Add chicken cubes and let sit in fridge 30-45 minutes
  4. Soak skewers in water
