In a large mixing bowl, combine minced chicken or lamb, finely chopped onion, ginger paste, and garlic paste.
Add finely chopped green chilies, coriander leaves, and mint leaves to the meat mixture.
Season the mixture with ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, red chili powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
Fold in gluten-free breadcrumbs and crack an egg into the mixture. Add lemon juice and mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 15 minutes. This helps to firm up the mixture and make it easier to handle.
After refrigerating, take small portions of the mixture and shape them around skewers to form cylindrical kababs.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Place the skewered kababs into the pan.
Cook the kababs, turning occasionally, for approximately 10-12 minutes or until they are evenly browned and cooked through.
Ensure the internal temperature of the meat reaches at least 75°C (167°F) for safety.
Serve hot with chutney, salad, or your choice of side.
