Recipe Notes
For the Marination
In a bowl, add the Greek yogurt, olive oil, paprika and cumin powder, ginger, garlic and coriander leaves.
Mix everything well and add salt to taste.
Add the chicken pieces, onion and green peppers to the marinade.
Make sure the marinade covers the chicken and the vegetables well.
Refrigerate the marinated chicken for atleast 15-20 mins.
Prepare the skewers by alternating with chicken, onion and pepper.
Heat a pan on a medium heat, add a few drops of oil.
Grill the skewers lightly until the chicken and vegetables are cooked and slightly charred.
Turn the skewers over every now and then.
Serve hot alongside a salad made with cucumbers and tomatoes. Coarsely sprinkle some goats cheese on the skewers. Enjoy.
