Yield 15 tikkas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

5 garlic cloves
1 green chili pepper
2 cups cilantro leaves
4 cups mint leaves
1 tablespoon cumin powder
1/2 green bell pepper
1 scallion (use the white and light green part only)
1 tablespoon vegetables or 1 tablespoon canola oil, and more for grilling
4 chicken breasts (chicken tenders)
kosher salt
fresh lemon juice

Steps:

In a food processor/blender, mix cilantro leaves, mint leaves, scallion, bell pepper, cumin powder, green chili and garlic cloves.
Add oil to the above mixture and blend to form a smooth paste.
Remove the prepared green mixture in to a zip lock bag along with the chicken tenders.
Seal the bag and massage the marinade in to the chicken tenders. Place this bag in the refrigerator overnight or for at least ten hours.
Use skewers to place the marinated chicken tenders. Sprinkle salt on each side of them.
Heat the grill and rub it with some oil. Place the skewers on it to get grill marks on each side and cook until the chicken is done.
Drizzle some fresh lemon juice and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce and loved ones!
Tips: If salt is added in the marinade, it will extract moisture from the vegetables and leaves. This will result in a watery marinade, which is not desired.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Organic chicken, fresh herbs, and flavorful yogurt will make a big difference in the final dish.
Don't be afraid to adjust the spices to your liking. If you like things spicy, add more chili powder or cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder dish, use less.
Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make it more tender.
When grilling the chicken, cook it over medium heat so that it has time to cook through without burning.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, naan bread, or salad.
