Marinating chicken in yoghurt and lemon juice helps to tenderise it, making these Mild Masala-spiced skewers so soft and juicy. Serve with cucumber ribbons, spring onions and an extra drizzle of creamy yoghurt.

Ingredients

1/2 cup plain yoghurt
1 lemon juiced
2 tbsp Rajah Mild Masala curry powder
2 cloves garlic crushed
2 tbsp tomato paste
800 g skinless chicken breasts sliced
wooden skewers
spring onion chopped to serve
cucumber peeled into ribbons to serve
salt and freshly grated black pepper to taste

Cooking Method

In a bowl mix together the yoghurt, lemon juice, Rajah Mild Masala curry powder, garlic and tomato paste.
Season to taste with salt and freshly cracked black pepper then add the chicken.
Stir well to coat the chicken in the marinade then allow to marinate in the fridge for 1 hour.
Soak the wooden skewers in a bowl of water while the chicken is marinating to prevent the sticks from burning in the oven.
Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
Remove the sticks from the water then thread the chicken on and place into a greased baking tray.
Drizzle with a little oil then bake in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes.
Serve with cucumber ribbons, chopped spring onion and an extra drizzle of yoghurt.
