Flavorful,healthy and cooks fast are all the things I like about this recipe. I make this very often at home,specially during weekdays. I marinate everything in the morning and put it in the fridge and when I get back from work, just add some onions and cilantro/coriander and the kebabs are ready in about 10 minutes.
I do make it a lot when we are on our Whole30 detox. I have to come up with new dishes at every meal,specially when you have a teenager who is also doing the whole30. We like to add it to our salad to make a complete meal.
Since no bread,bread crumbs or any type of flour is added for binding, its great for people who are sensitive to gluten. I have also made it completely fatfree by not using any ghee/oil, instead just spray some cooking spray and it tastes just as great. Make sure to cover the pan so the kebabs get to cook in there juices and remain moist.
Here is the step by step written recipe followed by the pictorial one-

How long do you think it takes to cook? I am making this first time and I am a bit nervous if it is undercooked.thanks
Aanchal Gupta
Hi Akanksha, you can cover and cook as well if you think it might be undercooked. Since the kebabs are pretty small and not very thick, the inside gets cooked by the time the outside gets browned.

I am too lazy to prepare chicken kebabs. That is why I always order them in Kulcha King (via online order). Aside from their authentic Indian food taste, they got special offers that are so attractive.
Aanchal Gupta
Hi Helen, I am sure the Kebabs at Kulcha King are great. This is a very easy recipe. Do try it out
Anupama
I made these for an Iftaar party and everyone loved it. The kebabs were nice and juicy. The ginger flavour was the best.
I did add 1 egg in the mix to bind everything nicely
Aanchal Gupta
Thanks happy to hear it was a hit at your iftar party. I also sometimes add egg white, for binding and making it more juicy. Thanks for sharing your feedback
