Hariyali Chicken Kebab / Green Chicken Kabab

CookTime :30 Min | Servings : 2 Persons

[nggallery id=1]

Kebab’s are famous as starters in restaurants. Hariyali tikka is a famous Punjabi dhaba appetizer. They are famous along the highway side dhabas and some restaurants. They are grilled in the fire grill. They are perfectly coated with mint and coriander flavor turns out to be green Chicken Kababs.
Normally the chicken alone will be grilled, for a change I added some chili powder coated onions and bell peppers. Trust me, it tastes really good. We loved them a lot!! We ended up fighting for the grilled onions and bell peppers.
I added a little extra mint and coriander, so it looks very greenish. But I have reduced the quantity of them in the recipe, so with the below recipe the color would vary a little from what I have got.

Khao Phad Sapparot / Thai Pineapple Chicken Fried Rice
Fried Rice will be cooked at least once a week in a typical Thai home. Usually fried rice combination will be made on the fly with the ingredients available at hand. Also, fried rice is easy to make with the left over rice and perfectly suited for parties of all sort.
Thai Curry paste can be bought in stores and refrigerated, since I didn’t have it, I made the curry paste myself. I also made my own combination of veggies and meat. Instead of Chicken, shrimp can also be used or it can be cooked only with vegetables.
When it’s this easy to make at home, who says no to try it out !!!

Nattu Kozhi Kulambu / Chicken Gravy

This is some what similar to the way we prepare chicken kuzhambu at kongunadu houses. We don’t add star anise, black stone flower. I added those to get the extra aroma which suites well for idili and dosa. Preparing this with the whole chicken gives an extra ordinary taste. Chicken thighs or breasts can also be substituted but will get the taste little closer to the original.
