One of my favorite Indian restaurant in Germany is in Kaiserslautern [which is about 75 kms from the place where we live]. We go there very often. In a way I am addicted to this restaurant. There is this one dish which we order each and every time we go there - which is 'Chicken Sekhwa'. It is a nepalese dish and tastes amazing. Well, having tasted it more than 50 times I decided it is time for me to try this at home. I have decided to split the recipe in to two parts, so that it is easy to understand. In this part I will show the procedure for making chicken tikkas [grilled chicken pieces]. You can find the recipe for the gravy in my other post.
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- Chicken - 1000 gms
- Ginger garlic paste - 1 tbsp
- Thick yogurt - 1/2 cup
- Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
- Lemon juice - 1 tsp
- Salt - 1 tsp
- Chilli powder - 1 tsp
- Garam masala - 1/2 tsp
- Almond powder 2 tbsp
- Oil - 1 tbsp
Procedure:
- Clean the chicken and slice them in to bite size pieces.
- In a separate bowl add yogurt, salt, chilli powder, ginger garlic paste, turmeric powder, lemon juice, garam masala and mix well.
- Add the chicken pieced to the above marinade and mix well. Add almond powder, oil to the above and mix well.
- Refrigerate the marinated chicken pieced for 2 to 6 hours.
- Heat the grill pan and spray some oil on top.
- Grill the marinate chicken pieces till they are completely cooked.
Enjoy with some hot rice or even as a snack!!!
Note: You can use cashew nut powder in stead of almond powder. I like grilling the pieces, if you have a tandoor oven go ahead and bake them
