These kabobs were a bit time-consuming to make, but they were totally worth the effort. The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the flavors were incredible. I'll definitely be making these again for special occasions.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still enjoyed these kabobs. I used tofu instead of chicken and it turned out great. The marinade was so flavorful and the tofu cooked perfectly on the grill.

I had some trouble finding tandoori masala at my local grocery store, but I was able to find a recipe online and make my own. It was totally worth the effort! The chicken turned out amazing.

These kabobs were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of yogurt, but I'm so glad I did. The yogurt sauce was amazing and really complemented the chicken. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.
