Ingredients
- 2 lb Chicken thighs
- 1 cup Yogurt
- 3 tbsp Tandoori masala
- 1 Lemon
- 2 Bell peppers
- 1 Red onion
- 1/4 cup Mint chutney
Steps
- Whisk the yogurt, tandoori masala, lemon juice, and a tablespoon of salt into a thick marinade.
- Cut the chicken into large chunks and coat thoroughly; marinate at least 2 hours, or overnight for the deepest flavor.
- Soak wooden skewers in water 30 minutes so they do not burn on the grill.
- Thread the chicken onto skewers, alternating with chunks of pepper and onion.
- Grill over medium-high 5 minutes per side, until charred at the edges and cooked through.
- The yogurt marinade should caramelize into dark, crispy spots — that char is flavor.
- Rest 5 minutes.
- Serve with mint chutney for dipping.
