  1. Cut the cube size pieces of the chicken breast to make chicken kebabs. Drain all the water and pat dry the chicken pieces.

  5. Cover the bowl and keep in refrigerator for an hour for marination.
  6. Preheat the oven at 190’C or 370F. Place chicken cubes on the skewers. If you do not have skewers, cover a baking tray with aluminium foil, grease it and place chicken onto it. Put chicken in oven.
  7. Coriander chicken kebabs will be ready in 15-20 minutes. Brush chicken with ghee or oil in between. If you are using tray, change the sides in 7-10 minutes.
