Ingredients

  • 500 grams Boneless chicken breast
  • 1 medium Red bell pepper
  • 1 medium Green bell pepper
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 100 grams Yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 8 Skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

Chop the red and green bell peppers and onion into similar sized chunks.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger garlic paste, red chili powder, paprika, ground cumin, garam masala, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 4

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and mix until the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best results.

Step 5

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 6

Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated chicken, red and green bell peppers, and onion onto the skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly charred on the outside.

Step 9

Remove from the grill and let the skewers rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with a side salad or low carb dip.
