Soak the wooden skewers in water for sometime .
Thread the chicken pieces through it.
Drizzle some oil on a hot nonstick pan.
Now place the skewers on the pan and fry by turning on all sides.
Towards the end either brush or put the fresh cream or butter over it and cook for few seconds.

IN OVEN
Soak the wooden skewers for 30 mins and later thread in the chicken .Shake off the extra marinade.
Preheat the oven at 240 *C
Arrange the skewers on a rack as shown in pic .We have to use a rack ,so that the chicken gets roasted from all sides. Don’t crowd.
Keep a tray below the rack .
Bake /grill for 20 mins.
Rotate the skewers and again cook for 10 mins.
Brush some oil and continue .
Check after 25 mins .

NOTES
- You can give it a smoky flavour or charred flavor refer here –https://maryzkitchen.com/chicken-tikka-with-smoky-flavour/
- Smaller the chunks lesser the cooking time.
- Best part of this recipe is with 1 tbsp oil you can cook ½ or 1 kg chicken.
- Even in the first skewer method we can either cover and cook or cook without lid.
- By covering it makes it easy to cook as the chicken sweats and by end gets coated with the little oil which we used.
- We can also add cashew and almond paste but it becomes difficult to cook on stove.So we can mix this paste in the final stage with the fresh cream .
- You can also add grated cheese towards the end for a cheesy taste.
- Even fresh cream I added towards the end because otherwise it sticks to the pan immediately and burns.
- These kebabs can be used to make reshmi kebab butter gravy
- For more flavour you can drizzle little butter while cooking.
- Kasoori methi pwdr can be added while marination or towards the end part of cooking.
- Kids luv it. Avoid green chillies while making for them .
- More the marination better the taste and the masala gets absorbed well by the chicken chunks.
- Using the same recipe we can make chicken gravy – Murg malai gravy recipe
