Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

Chicken
4 garlic cloves
1 (2" piece) ginger, peeled
3 Tbsp. whole-milk plain Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. ground coriander
½ tsp. cayenne pepper
½ tsp. ground cumin
1½ lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1" pieces
Sumac onions
1 small red onion, halved, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. sumac
2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
Hari chutney and assembly
Juice of 1 lime
1 green or red Thai chile, seeds removed if desired
1 garlic clove
½ cup coarsely chopped cilantro
½ cup coarsely chopped mint
½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
1 cup sour cream
Vegetable oil (for grill)
4-6 brioche hot dog buns, split
1 English hothouse cucumber, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced on a diagonal
Special equipment:
Four to six 8" metal skewers or bamboo skewers, soaked 30 minutes

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 make the chicken boti kebabs extra tender, marinate them for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • If you don't have wooden skewers, you can use metal skewers or even toothpicks.
  • Make sure to preheat your grill or oven to the proper temperature before cooking the kebabs.
  • Cook the kebabs over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Baste the kebabs with additional marinade or oil while they are cooking to keep them moist.
  • Serve the chicken boti kebabs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as mint chutney, raita, or tamarind sauce.

Conclusion:

Chicken boti kebabs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are great for a weeknight dinner, a party appetizer, or even a picnic. With their tender chicken, flavorful marinade, and smoky grilled flavor, chicken boti kebabs are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
