I have already shared my recipe for murg malai kabab. I would say that this is my all time favorite kabab, and i wanted to reshare it with new pictures.
This kabab is so juicy and very mild so i am sure kids will love it for sure. This is great for parties. Marinate the chicken the day before and grill it just before serving. It will hit the spot for sure..
Hope you will try this out and let me know how it turns out for you..
Preparation Time : 10 mins
Marinating Time : Overnight
Baking Time : 15 to 16 mins

Thanks for visiting my blog, this particular recipe drew my attention, I like the detailed description with the photos, will come back again.
meenakshi
mam i have got sunflame OTG , WANT TO MAKE THIS BUT HAVE NOT understood broil method can you please explain this so that ican go ahead with this recpie.
thanks
Aarthi
@meenakshi
Congrats on buying a new OTG..OTG's are heated by a coil or element that are fixed in the top and bottom of the oven. If you want broil mode, you should set it accordingly so that the top element alone heats up.So that the chicken or whatever gets nice colour and turns crispy. If you are baking, you need to heat both the element so that the cake bakes evenly. there will be options in the oven to do this..Hope this helps you..Come back if need any more assitance..
meenakshi
hello mam ,tommorrow i am planning to make this but again two question have arised first the oven should be preheated with both elements if i want to make this only on broiling mode , secondly on which rack should the chicken tray be placed in OTG for broiling?
thanks
Aarthi
@meenakshi
Heat the grill element alone..
Place the tray in the top most rack. But don't make the chicken to touch the element
Subha

Hi, I tried this recipe the other day and it took almost an hour for it to get grilled even though my chicken pieces were small. When I tasted it after 30 min, the chicken was cooked well inside, but the outer marinating covering was stil having that raw taste and had not dried also. Please help me how I can avoid grilling chicken for such a long time as the final result is that the chicken tastes good, but it is not juicy and is hard.
Aarthi
@Anonymousif you cook it too long then it will turn hard. Did you place the tray on the top rack and did you marinate it well

I once had chicken malai tikka at a hotel while travelling, since then I'm in love with this thing and always wished to prepare it myself. The way you elaborated the things are very good and I sure make this good stuff at home and no wonder it works perfectly, thank you.
