Reshmi Kebab (Silken Kebabs) image

This is a traditional Muglai dish prepared in India. It gets its name from the succulence of the meat after prolonged marinating and light braising. Traditionally, chicken, beef or lamb meat is used, but prawns or scallops are good substitutes too for this smooth as silk kebabs. Serve with chatnis (dips made from coconut, cilantro and mint, usually found in Indian grocery stores) or tomato sauce.

I'm not sure what went wrong with this Reshmi Kebab recipe, but it was inedible. The chicken was dry and flavorless, and the marinade was overpowering. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This Reshmi Kebab recipe was a complete disaster! The chicken was tough and the marinade was way too salty. I ended up throwing the whole thing away. What a waste of time and ingredients!

I was a bit disappointed with this Reshmi Kebab recipe. The chicken was a bit dry and the marinade didn't have much flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This was my first time making Reshmi Kebab, and it turned out pretty well. The chicken was moist and flavorful, but I think I overcooked it a bit. I'll definitely try this recipe again and make sure to cook the chicken for less time.
