Low and Light Chicken Shashlik Recipe #328692
This is not only a great way to eat more vegetables but also have something light with no sauce. You can use other vegetables as well including mushrooms and baby corn. It’s the next best thing to tandoori chicken and a fun way of cooking chicken. This can also be done on a barbecue but make sure the chicken is cooked thoroughly and do not use the left over marinade to brush the cooked chicken with. Time does not include marinating.
