I've tried a few different chicken sekuwa recipes, but this one is definitely the best. The chicken was incredibly flavorful and juicy, and the marinade was perfect. I'll definitely be making this again soon.

This chicken sekuwa was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used a bit more spice. The chicken itself was cooked perfectly, but the flavors were just a bit underwhelming. Will probably try it again with a different marinade next time.

Not a fan of spicy food, but this chicken sekuwa was surprisingly mild and flavorful. The yogurt marinade really tenderized the chicken and the spices gave it a nice kick without being overpowering. Will definitely be making this again!
