Taystit by Hasna: Chicken Reshmi Kabab 2.0

Chicken Reshmi Kabab 2.0

These are one of the best kabab recipes I have ever tried, and everytime I made this my husband raves about how good it is, and better than the ones we get from restaurants..little does he know that it’s super easy to make them too! This recipe has been on my blog since 2018, I thought it needed a revamp (coz it’s soo good!) and made a reel too..finally! Haha, do checkout the recipe reel on my Instagram. By the way, I haven’t deleted or changed the old post, as it shows my growth (in photography etc), and I wouldn’t trade it for anything 😉🫶🏼

Coming back to the recipe, if you love kebabs and BBQ you are gonna love the fact you found this recipe. I personally think this is the best kebab recipe I came across. So succulent and juicy that these hot kebabs are going to get over in a blink of an eye. So watch out! hahaha (Keep some for yourself, or else you will regret it later, I did!) 🙍

Hard and dry Kebabs are my pet peeves! I found this recipe from a group of sisters and it was the trending dish, so I knew I had to make it! I would have regretted if I hadn't tried it. You just can't enjoy your kebabs if they aren't tender and juicy. Kebabs are like the staple food in middle eastern cuisine and the origin is also stated to be from the middle east. Yet they are relished, cooked and enjoyed all over the world. There are many variants and styles kebabs are prepared in. For me it’s always sheesh kebab. I just love them. I am sure you will love them too.

Kebabs are so delicious yet the easiest to prepare; it isn't deep fried and so doesn't require a lot of oil. I have used a grill pan here, you may use a non-stick fry pan. I love those stripes on my kebabs and grilling on a grill pan makes it even more succulent. The coconut powder and cream are the secrets to a successful tummy-kush kebab. The tender Chicken breasts is a game changer, you get them in supermarkets, it plays a big role to make the chicken even juicier. If you can't find them, you may brine them for half an hour to 45 minutes. You can do this by soaking the chicken in a solution of 4 cups of warm water and 1/4 cup of salt and a couple of tablespoon of sugar and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. This step isn't necessary but will help you attain juicy kebabs, you can totally omit it, it doesn't matter, it's just a tip of mine. I have been wanting to share this recipe since so long now. And finally, it is time to reveal the RECIPE OF THE JUCIEST KEBABS you are ever going to make!
