Instructies
- Place the wooden skewers (8 in all) in some water in a bowl to soak.
- After doing this you need to place the yogurt and curry paste in a bowl and mix together then to this you add the cubes of chicken.
- Make sure that you stir the chicken into the mixture well to ensure all pieces are coated.
- Now cover the top of the bowl and place in the refrigerator to marinate for an hour or so.
- Next in another bowl place the cucumber, red onion, coriander and lemon and toss them altogether.
- Again place this bowl in the refrigerator (covered over) and leave there until you are ready to serve the chicken.
- Whilst the barbecue is heated up now you need to start preparing the skewers.
- You must make sure that you shake off any excess marinade before then threading the pieces of chicken on to the skewers.
- After threading on a piece of chicken now thread on a cherry tomato and do this until all skewers have been used.
- Once the Chicken Tikka skewers are ready and the barbecue has heated up you are now ready to start cooking.
- You should keep the skewers on the barbecue for between 15 and 20 minutes, making sure that you turn them regularly so that they get cooked through and become a nice brown color.
- When it comes to serving the skewers place them to one side on a clean plate to rest for a few minutes whilst you prepare the salad.
- Into the salad before serving mix the lettuce and pea shoots and divide this equally between four plates and on top of which you then place two of the skewers.
- Serve them with chapattis that have been warmed through on the barbecue.
- The best way to warm the chapattis on the barbecue is to wrap them in some aluminum foil.
