Keto Chicken Skewers
Turning my green chutney dip into a marinade
On the last episode I cooked up some tandoori chicken wings and made a creamy green chutney dip to go with it. I polished off the wings but there was still a good amount of the green chutney dip left. As you know, I hate wasting food and I could either make more wings to finish the dip or I could find some clever way to use it. We have very many different kinds of kebabs in Indian cuisine and we have one that is green in colour (which I don’t eat often) but I figured this dip would make a good marinade for a kebab. So fast forward to this recipe. I used the chutney to create some Keto chicken skewers and since these are quite mild in flavour I decided to make a rich butter hot sauce dip to go along with it.
A kebab a day keeps the hunger at bay
I personally love kebabs. I think they are really easy to prepare, easy to reheat and perfect to dip into some butter and eat as a Keto snack. I’ve previously made Chicken Tikka on the show as well as Reshmi kebab. When I’m not making that home I generally avoid chicken tikka or the spicier kebabs and stick with malai kebabs or reshmi tikka. What’s your favourite Kebab? I’d love to know.
