¼

2
tsp

2
lb
boneless skinless chicken breast
Instructions
In a small blender or food processor, combine the cilantro, mint, green chili, and ginger.
Process until the herbs are finely chopped.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the yogurt, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, lemon juice, and salt.
Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and add it to the bowl with the yogurt mixture, stirring to coat the chicken.
Marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers and grill over high heat until cooked through.
Notes
This recipe can be doubled easily. I’ve doubled the marinade recipe and had plenty for 5 pounds of chicken.
You can also cook the chicken in a skillet without the skewers if it’s not grilling weather.
