| Preparation: | Skewers:
Cut chicken fillets into 1-1/2" cubes. Combine ground coriander, turmeric, chili pepper, garlic, sugar and salt. In a bowl, toss pieces of chicken in spice mixture. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours. Soak bamboo skewers in water for 10 minutes or more then drain. Thread chicken pieces onto bamboo skewers. Preheat a grill pan or barbecue, then brush grill with oil. Grill chicken skewers until golden and tender, 2-3 minutes on each side. Mint Yogurt: Combine yogurt, garlic, mint and cucumber. Mix until well combined. Cover and chill before serving. The longer it sits, the more the flavors blend through the yogurt. |
