    [tabs type=”horizontal”] [tabs_head] [tab_title]Step by Step Method[/tab_title] [tab_title]Expert Tip’s[/tab_title][tab_title]Serving Suggestions[/tab_title][/tabs_head] [tab]

    Step 1

    Place chicken mince in a food processor. Add all remaining ingredents except oil. Process until well combined.

    Step 2

    Don’t over chop the meat in the food processor, just a few spins. Take it out in a bowl. Cover and keep aside for 30 minutes to blend flavors.

    Step 3

    Put some oil on your hands to prevent meat from sticking to them. Make round small balls and put on skewers. Press firmly and shape into seekh kabab.

    Step 4

    Put the seekh kabab on very low heat of coal fire or in a oven.

    Step 5

    Cook and turn skewer ocassionally, until the kabab are light brown.

    Step 6

    Brush over the remaining oil with the seeds for the last minute of cooking.

    Step 7

    Once done, remove the kebabs from the skewers  (seekhs) with the help of a piece of bread so you don’t burn yourself.

    Step 8

    Garnish with Lemon wedges and ring onions. Sesame Chicken Seekh Kababs are ready to serve. ENJOY!!

    [/tab][tab]

    1. Do not over gril or brown the kabab.
    2. Another way to make chicken seekh kabab is that put the mixture around the satay stick and then place them on a hot tawa or griddle, drizzle oil or butter and cook evenly all around until browned.
    3. If you are making this kabab on the tawa then you need to baste them with butter or oil at regular intervals.
    4. These delicious, juicy kebabs can be made with any minced meat you like, but I like chicken best Minced chicken is easily available in the market, but in case you do not get it then simply buy the boneless chicken, cut into small pieces and chop little bit in the chopper. Your minced chicken will be ready.

    1. I deseed the green chillies since biting into them can be very unpleasantly spicy. I like their flavour so I take the trouble to remove the seeds and them in. You can just skip this and add red chilli flakes or only pepper for spice
    2. Add some grated cheese just before removing the omelette from the pan and fold in half. Awesome cheese masala omelette ready. I have used both cheddar cheese and pizza cheese with great results
    3. You can add other vegetables like shredded carrots, mushroom, cabbage, etc.
    4. You can saute the vegetables lightly before adding to the omelette, just takes extra time which I don’t like spending on an omelette
    5. You can also cook the omelette by covering it with a lid after pouring the mixture into the pan. I personally prefer the flipping method
