Steps:
- Chicken
- Smash garlic with a mortar and pestle to make a paste (you should have 1 Tbsp.) and transfer to a medium bowl. Repeat process with ginger (you should also have 1 Tbsp. You can also finely chop and then smash the garlic and ginger with the side of a chef's knife on a cutting board if you don't have a mortar and pestle.) Add yogurt, oil, salt, coriander, cayenne, and cumin to bowl and whisk to combine. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes, or chill up to 4 hours.
- Sumac onions
- Toss red onion, sumac, and salt in a small bowl to coat; set aside.
- Hari chutney and assembly
- Purée lime juice, chile, garlic, cilantro, mint, and ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a food processor or blender until smooth and pourable. If you prefer a thinner chutney, drizzle in 1-3 Tbsp. ice water a tablespoonful at a time, processing until you reach the desired consistency. Taste and season chutney with more salt if needed. Transfer to a small bowl.
- Place sour cream in another small bowl and add 2 Tbsp. chutney; whisk to combine. Season herbed sour cream with salt. Cover both remaining chutney and herbed sour cream separately and chill until ready to serve.
- Prepare a grill for medium heat; oil grate. Thread chicken onto skewers, taking care not to pack it too tightly. Grill, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and charred in spots, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and slide chicken from skewers. (Alternatively, broil skewers on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, turning once, about 5 minutes per side.)
- Spread reserved herbed sour cream on cut sides of buns. Stuff buns with chicken, cucumber slices, and reserved sumac onions and drizzle with chutney. Do ahead: Hari chutney and herbed mayo can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
Tips:
- To achieve a tender and flavorful chicken, marinate it for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight, in a mixture of yogurt, spices, and herbs.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to evenly distribute heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Brown the chicken pieces in a small amount of oil over medium-high heat to create a flavorful crust.
- Add enough liquid, such as chicken broth or water, to cover the chicken halfway. This will help prevent the chicken from drying out during cooking.
- Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 30-40 minutes.
- To make the sauce, sauté onions in butter until softened, then add garlic and cook for a minute more.
- Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Gradually whisk in milk and chicken broth until the sauce reaches the desired consistency.
- Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and paprika to taste.
- Serve the chicken with the sauce, mashed potatoes, and a side of vegetables.
