Instructions

Step 1

In a bowl, combine salt, pepper, chili flakes, cumin, tikka masala, ginger powder, garlic powder, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, mustard paste, chili sauce, and yogurt. Add the chicken and mix everything well to coat the pieces evenly. Let it marinate for about an hour.

Step 2

Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, alternating with chunks of onion, capsicum, and tomatoes.

Step 3

Grill the skewers over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and nicely browned.

Step 4

To add a smoky flavor, heat a little oil in a small pan until it’s smoking hot, then carefully pour it over the cooked skewers.

Step 5

Serve the grilled chicken with your favorite sauce and enjoy!
