Ajwaini Hara Tikka

This is an extremely simple chicken starter that hardly takes any time to prepare and cook, but is amazing in terms of taste. If you are feeling lazy, but still want to treat your guests with some real restaurant like experience, go ahead and make this one and use skewers and mint chutney to make it complete!

Don't forget to dip the skewers in water so that they dont start burning in the oven :)

You need:

Chicken cut into bite size pieces
Yogurt (Curd) 1 cup
Cumin seed 1 tsp
Onion (NIgella) Seeds (called kalonji in hindi)
Garam Malasa 1 tsp
Ajwain (Caraway seeds) 1/2 tsp
Ginger/garlic paste
Chooped fried onions
Fresh Coriander and Mint paste (2 tsp)
Lemon juice 1 tsp
Red chili 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Chooped Coriander and green chillis for garnishing
  1. Marinate chicken with all ingredients above for 30 minutes.
  2. Pre-heat oven to 225C for 10 /15mins
  3. Roast in oven for 25 mins, moving chicken periodically.
  4. Garnish with tomato, coriander and green chilis

There it is - easy as hell, tasty as heaven..!!
