In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken breast with onion, garlic, ginger, green chili, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, paprika, and salt.
Add the chopped fresh cilantro and mint to the mixture, followed by the lemon juice and low-fat yogurt. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Divide the chicken mixture into 8 equal portions. Using wet hands, shape each portion around the length of a wooden skewer to form a kebab. Make sure to press the mixture firmly so that it holds its shape.
Place the prepared kebabs on the lined baking tray, ensuring they're spaced out adequately.
Lightly spray the kebabs with olive oil spray to help them brown.
Bake the kebabs in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve hot with a side of green chutney or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
