Murg Malai Kebab or Chicken Malai Kebab are melt in the mouth delicious creamy kebabs! They serve as a super delicious starter and are very easy to make.
Ingredients
  • Chicken boneless: 600 gm cut into small pieces
  • First Marinade:
  • Pepper Powder: 3 tsp
  • Ginger Paste: 2 tbsp
  • Garlic Paste: 2 tbsp
  • Lemon Juice: 2 tbsp
  • Salt: 1 tsp
  • Second Marinade
  • Mozzarella Cheese: 6 tbsp
  • Cornflour: 2 tbsp
  • Green chilies: 2 big
  • Garlic cloves: 4
  • Coriander: ¼ cup
  • Fresh Cream: 4 tbsp
  • Hung Yogurt: 4 tbsp
  • Cardamom Powder: 1 tsp
  • Oil: 4 tbsp
  • Salt: To taste
Instructions
  1. Clean and wash the chicken pieces. Apply the ingredients mentioned in the first marinade and place in fridge for 30 minutes for marination.
  2. Grind together the green chilies, garlic cloves and coriander to a fine paste. Mix the paste with the mozzarella cheese, cornflour, fresh cream, yogurt, cardamom powder, oil and salt and mix well.
  3. Add the marinade of step 2 to the chicken pieces of step 1 and apply to the chicken pieces to coat them properly. Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours. (I prefer an overnight marination)
  4. Put chicken pieces on the skewers. I have the bigger skewers, so can easily accommodate around 6 pieces of chicken on one skewer.
  5. Arrange the skewers on the grill plate and grill till the chicken is fully cooked. You will need to flip it to the other side from time to time so that it is evenly cooked on all sides.
  6. Serve with mint chutney.
Notes
Note: If you are using wooden skewers, keep them dipped in water for 5 minutes before using them to avoid scorching.
