Ingredients:

Serving

1 kg chicken breast, cubed into big piece
4 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
salt
1 tsp white pepper
1 egg, beaten
60 g cheddar cheese, grated (4 tblsp)
8 green chilies , deseeded and chopped really fine
4 tsp coriander leaves, finely chopped
1/2 tsp ground mace
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 tsp cornflour
3/4 cup cream
oil or butter , for basting
coriander (to garnish )
tomato (to garnish )
lemon (to garnish )

Directions:

Marinate the chicken cubes with ginger-garlic paste, salt and white pepper for 15 mins.
Mix well together the beaten egg, cheese, green chillies, coriander, mace-nutmeg powder, cornflour and cream Add this to the chicken and marinate for 3 hours more atleast Skewer the chicken cubes 2 cm apart and roast in a preheated oven at 137C/275 F oven/ grill/ tandoor for 5-8 mins.
Hang the skewers for 3-5 mins to drain, brush with oil and roast again for 3 mins Serve hot garnished with chopped coriander, tomato slices and lemon wedges.
For any marinade that's left over I normally freeze and reuse for paneer (cottage cheese) tikkas, or add to scrabled egg the next morning or even use in a chicken casserole the next day. I hate to throw it out!! And this does not only go for this marinade but marinade for any tikka recipe. If there is no egg and cream in it I thicken it and serve at the side like a sauce.
Edited recipe thanks to Latchy's review and my apologies to Latchy!!!
