Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken breasts
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.
In a food processor, blend the garlic and ginger into a paste.
In the bowl with the chicken, add the garlic-ginger paste, soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, garam masala, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for best flavor.
While the chicken is marinating, cut the red and green bell peppers and the red onion into 1-inch pieces.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers, alternating with pieces of bell pepper and onion.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are charred and tender.
Once done, remove from the grill and let the skewers rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Keto Chicken Shashlik hot!
