Chicken Tikkas

Ingredients for Chicken Tikkas

• 120ml thick plain whole-milk yoghurt such as Greek

• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

• 1 teaspoon finely grated (with a rasp) peeled fresh ginger

• 1 teaspoon finely grated (with a rasp) garlic

• 3/4 teaspoons garam masala (Indian spice mix)

• 1/2 teaspoons salt

• 1/4 teaspoons cayenne

How to make Chicken Tikkas

Stir together all ingredients except chicken in a medium bowl, then add chicken, stirring to coat. Marinate, covered and chilled, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Prepare a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderately high heat for gas).

While grill is heating, thread 3 or 4 pieces of chicken onto each skewer, leaving a little space between pieces, and transfer to a tray lined with plastic wrap.

Oil grill rack, then grill chicken, covered only if using a gas grill, turning occasionally, until browned and just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes total.
