Step 1 – Prepare the Chicken Mixture

It’s easy to make Delhi Qureshi Kabab style Chicken seekh kabab at home in a non-stick frying pan. We will give this Chicken Kabab Recipe the same smoky flavor as of Kababs made at Charcoal. And we are going to use a trick for that. This little trick will help our Chicken Kababs to have that amazing charcoal flavor and the taste of all goodness of Chicken kababs. So let’s get started and follow these simple recipe instructions to make our spicy, mouth melting Chicken kababs.

Wash 750 Grams boneless Chicken properly and then keep it in a strainer for about 30 minutes so all the water should be extracted out. This is very important to keep our chicken kabab mixture as tight as possible to make nice firm seekh kababs. So make sure all the water from Chicken is strained well.
Once all the water is strained from Chicken, grind the Chicken pieces in a food processor or grinder to make a coarse mixture of Chicken meat. Do not overcrowd the grinder but grind in small chunks.
Take the ground chicken meat in a large bowl and add kabab spices. So add 1 Nos Chopped Onion (प्याज़), 5 to 6 Nos Green Chillies (हरी मिर्च), 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder (कश्मीरी लाल मिर्च) (Optional), 1 Tsp Yellow Chilli Powder (पीली मिर्च) OR Red Chilli Powder (लाल मिर्च पाउडर), 1 Tsp Salt (नमक), 1 Tsp Cumin Powder, ½ Tsp Turmeric Powder (हल्दी पाउडर), 2 Tsp Ginger Garlic Paste (अदरक लहसुन पेस्ट), 1 Tsp Chat Masala Powder, ¼ Tsp Mango Powder OR 1 Tsp Lemon Juice, 1 Tsp Garam Masala Powder and ½ Cup Coriander Leaves (हरा धनिया).

* Try if you can use homemade Ginger Garlic Paste. To make Ginger Garlic paste at home take 40% of Ginger and 60% of Garlic and grind them in a grinder with little water to make a fine paste. You can preserve this Ginger Garlic Paste in refrigerator for 15 days.
** “Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder” is not much spicy and used just to give your Chicken Kababs a nice color. You can leave it if not available.
Mix all the ingredients with chicken well with your hands. The mixture consistency should be thick so that it can be easily rolled out as the Kababs.
If the Chicken mixture consistency is being less thick, you can optionally add 2 to 3 Tsp of Roasted Black Grams Powder (Optional) to the mixture and mix well. This will absorb excess water and your chicken mixture will get the required consistency. See This Chicken Seekh Kabab Recipe Video In Action Here.
And now we are going to give our Chicken a nice smoky flavor so you will feel as if it is cooked over charcoal. To do that, make some space in center of Chicken mixture. Inside this space put a little steel bowl.
Heat a big piece of Charcoal well and place this hot charcoal piece into the steel bowl that we had placed in center of Chicken mixture.
Pour 1 tsp of oil or butter on this hot charcoal piece and immediately cover the Chicken mixture with a plate. The Charcoal will emit smoke which will give our Chicken mixture a nice aromatic smoky flavor. See This Chicken Seekh Kabab Recipe Video In Action Here.
Let it covered with plate for 2 minutes and then open the plate. Take the charcoal bowl out of Chicken mixture.
Mix the chicken mixture again well with your hands and our Chicken mixture is ready to roll out into Chicken Seekh Kababs.
To roll out Chicken mixture in shape of Seekh kabab, divide all the chicken meat mixture into equal sized meatballs of about 1.5 inch in size.
Now take a thick iron skewer rod that is used to make seekh kababs. Take a meatball and with the iron rod, rollout it in form of Seekh Kabab. See This Chicken Seekh Kabab Recipe Video In Action Here.
Grease a plate with little Oil. Then prepare 5 to 6 Seekh kababs first that can be fried in one batch and keep them ready in plate.

Step 2 – Finally, How to Make Chicken Seekh Kabab in Pan

Time needed: 30 minutes

So, we have raw kababs ready, this is the time to shallow fry the Kababs in a pan. Follow these simple recipe instructions for this yummy Chicken Kabab Recipe.

Heat 2 TBsp Oil in a not-stick frying pan on medium flame. Remember, we have to shallow fry the Chicken Seekh Kababs in very less Oil, so do not deep fry.
When Oil is hot, gently add all the prepared Chicken Kababs one by one in frying pan. Then switch the gas flame to low. Rest of the Kabab’s cooking will be done at low flame only.
Let the Chicken Kababs fry from one side for 3 to 4 minutes. In the meantime, you can prepare the raw Kababs from rest of the meatballs for next batch and keep them ready in a plate.
When Chicken Kababs are fried from one side, flip them to fry from other side too. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes from other side too at low flame.
When cooked, take them out in a plate and brush with Butter properly. This brushing with Butter will make your Chicken Kababs even softer. In fact in Delhi at “Qureshi Kababs”, they just put enough melted butter in a palate and dip the Kababs in that butter. You can also do the same, if you like that much of butter.
However, if you do not like that much of butter, you can simply brush the Chicken Kababs with melted Butter.
You spicy and Delhi (India) style Chicken Seekh Kababs are ready. Serve hot with Onion rings, Lemon and your favorite Chutney.
