3-4 cloves
1″ cinnamon
1/2 tea spn coriander seeds

Add all the ingredients to chicken and leave it for around 1-2hrs.
Grill them till they are done.

    I have a very similar quick fix recipe for chicken kabobs too, but I always make it in the oven. Did you use your grill pan? Love the grill marks on it.

    Shilpa: Yes, I love the pan :)

  2. Raaga says:

    I’ve not grilled food too much… must start :)

  3. Debashree says:

    Is the chicken used Boneless? I am having some boneless chicken and was looking for a quick and yummy recipe. Thanks for this recipe. Mouthwatering pic too!!!!

    Shilpa: Yes, it is boneless chicken.

    Wow!!! Did you grill it in grill pan over the gas stove or in the electric grilling machine. Whenever I grill in the electric grill, I never get that perfect blackish tinge (like restaurant ones). How you managed to do that? How long you need to grill the chicken? Your grilled chicken kabab looks so mouthwatering. Thanks for the recipe.

    Shilpa: I grilled on grill pan on the stove.

    Hi Shilpa

    Did you use boneless chikcen for this ?

    Looks almost like home-made Tandoori Masala !!!

    Whenever I cook chicken, it is never succulent and moist like they serve in the restaurants. DO you know how to achieve this ? Do you think they use meat tenderizer ?

    Shilpa: Yes, boneless chicken. I don’t know about tenderizer. But try with tender breast pieces(you get these in the meat isle with all other different cuts of chicken), they work the best. Do not use the frozen chicken. Do not cook for long time, remove as soon as they are done. I cover the grill with a aluminum foil while grilling, so the moisture is retained. I use kashmiri chilli powder from Indian store for the red color.

  17. shreevishnu says:

    From the picture it looks very good. Surely will try. Shilpa has nice ideas! By the way, are the cinnmon & cloves added after grilled?
    Best Regards

  18. ramya says:

    Can I use ready made tandoori masala instead of making the spice pwd? If yes, which brand would you recommend?Thanks!

  19. Arathi says:

    Hi Shilpa, Could you please tell us in your recipe how long you cook on the grill pan, how long for each side of the pieces, do you turn it often or just once for each side, and do you cook initially on high and then turn to medium or low to get the grill marks? Thanks!

    • Shilpa says:

      I turn only once. I grill them on high first and then slightly lower the heat, to get it cooked through (sometimes I cover with a aluminum foil, not necessary, but I have seen it makes cooking easier). I don’t know the exact time as I grill them till done, never check for time

  20. 3sh says:

  22. Can I use that picture for my homework?
    My homework is researching about food of Indian, China, Japna, France, and Italy
    I found onam sabya, It etc..

  23. adit says:

    i think kababs are the one in which the ingredients are minced together , especially the basic ones are shaped elongated or round or square shapes and then grilled or baked(at times). and served the chutneys or sauces.

    the grilled chicken tht u have shown is called as tikka.
    i believe i am right. :)
