Equipment
- Shallow dish
- Refrigerator
- Tandoor
- Charcoal grill
- Metal skewers
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Ginger Paste
- 1 tablespoon Garlic Paste
- 1 tablespoon White pepper freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Cumin seeds black
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 750 g Chicken breasts boneless
- 100 ml Natural (plain) yoghurt (1/2 cup) hung
- 1 Egg white
- 200 ml Cream (1 cup)
- 1/2 tablespoon Green Cardamom ground
- 1/4 tablespoon Mace ground
- 6-8 Green chillies de-seeded and chopped
- 1 Coriander (Cilantro) large sprig, chopped
- Butter melted, for basting
- Salt
Instructions
- Put the ginger and garlic pastes, half the white pepper, the black cumin seeds, and oil in a large shallow dish. Season with salt and mix well. Add the chicken breasts and rub evenly over to coat. Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Put the yoghurt, egg white, and cream in another large shallow dish and mix together to make a smooth paste. Season with salt and add the remaining white pepper, the ground cardamom and mace, chopped chillies and coriander and mix well.
- Put the chicken breasts into this second marinade and turn until they are evenly coated. Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for a further 2 hours.
- Prepare a tandoor or charcoal grill for moderate heat, or alternatively preheat the grill (broiler)to medium. Thread the chicken onto several metal skewers.
- Roast over a charcoal grill or under the hot grill for 6-7 minutes, or until half done.
- Remove the skewers from the heat and hang them up for about 2-3 minutes to allow any excess moisture to drain out completely. Put the skewers in a dish, baste with melted butter, and roast again in the tandoor, on the charcoal grill, or under the grill for a further 3-4 minutes, or until cooked.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate and serve hot.
