Indian Pakistani Recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds Boned and skinned chicken breasts

2/3 cup Plain lowfat yogurt

Fresh ginger root -- grated; to taste

2 cloves Garlic -- crushed

1 teaspoon Chili powder

1 teaspoon Ground coriander seeds

Salt -- to taste

2 tablespoons Lime juice

2 tablespoons Oil

Lime slices -- for garnish

Preparation

Rinse chicken, pat dry with paper towels and cut into 3/4" cubes. Thread

onto short skewers. Put skewered chicken into a shallow non-metal dish. In

a small bowl, mix together yogurt, gingerroot, garlic, chile powder,

coriander, salt, lime juice and oil. Pour over skewered chicken and turn to

coat completely in marinade. Cover and refrigerate 6 hours or overnight to

allow chicken to absorb flavors.


Heat grill. Place skewered chicken on grill rack and cook 5 to 7 minutes,

turning skewers and basting occasionally with any remaining marinade. Serve

hot, garnished with lime slices.
