Chicken Tikka Kebabs with Tzatziki

Chicken Tikka Kebabs

Ingredients- Serves 2

2 free range or organic chicken breasts

2 bell peppers, cut into chunks

2 medium red onions, cut into 8 pieces

4 tablespoons plain yogurt

2 tablespoons tikka curry paste

Method

  1. Mix the yogurt and tikka paste together in a bowl.
  2. Cut the chicken into large cubes and stir it into the curry-yogurt mixture.
  3. Leave to marinate for 30-60minutes. From experience, marinating for too long can make the chicken become too soft!
  4. Turn the grill on to a med-high setting or around 230°
  5. Thread the chicken, onion and peppers onto kebab sticks. I like to use metal ones.
  6. Grill each of the kebabs for around 7 minutes on each side. Test that the chicken is cooked through.

I like to serve this with a large salad and Tzatziki.
