In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground chicken with finely chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, and coriander leaves.
Add the chopped green chilies, garam masala, cumin powder, red chili powder, and salt to the mixture.
Pour in the lemon juice and add the egg white; this will help bind the mixture together.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. For best results, knead the mixture with your hands for 3-4 minutes.
Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend and for the mixture to firm up slightly.
Preheat the grill or a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the grill or pan with cooking spray.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Wet your hands and shape each portion around a skewer into a long sausage shape, pressing firmly.
Place the skewers on the grill or pan and cook for about 8-10 minutes on each side, or until the kebabs are evenly browned and cooked through.
Serve hot with mint yogurt chutney or a side salad for a delicious low-fat meal.
