Chicken Kebab (Juicy Seekh Style)

Ingredients (for 1 kg chicken)
• Boneless chicken (thigh preferred), finely minced (not paste) – 1 kg
• Onion paste (squeezed completely dry) – 150 g
• Ginger-garlic paste – 40 g
• Green chilli paste – 20 g
• Fresh coriander, finely chopped – 30 g
• Garam masala – 2 tsp
• Cumin powder – 2 tsp
• Coriander powder – 2 tsp
• Kashmiri chilli powder – 2 tsp
• Black pepper powder – 1 tsp
• Lemon juice – 2 tbsp
• Salt – 18 g (adjust to taste)
• Oil or melted butter – 50 ml
• Egg – 1 (optional, for extra binding)
• Cornflour or roasted besan – 30 g

Instructions:
1. Mince the chicken finely. It should be grainy, not a smooth paste.

2. Add the minced chicken to a large bowl.

3. Add onion paste, ginger-garlic paste, green chilli paste, coriander, all spices, salt, lemon juice, oil or butter, egg (if using), and cornflour or besan.

4. Mix everything very well.

5. Knead the mixture for 4–5 minutes until it becomes sticky and well bound. This step is very important for juicy kebabs.

6. Cover and rest the mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

7. Take portions and shape them onto skewers like seekh kebabs.

8. Grill at 220°C or cook on high flame, turning occasionally, until golden brown and fully cooked.

Serve hot with mint chutney, onion salad, and lemon wedges 😋

Peace 🥰

No matter how kind or generous you are, you will never satisfy an ungrateful person, because their dissatisfaction is not about what you're doing, but about who they are, and their inability to appreciate the good things in their life, and no matter how hard you try, or how much you give, they will always find a way to complain, and to criticize, and to make you feel like you're not doing enough, and like you're not good enough, and that's not your problem, that's theirs, and you shouldn't waste your time, and energy, and emotions trying to please someone who is never going to be satisfied, no matter what you do.

You deserve to be around people who appreciate, and value, and respect you, and who make you feel good about yourself, and who support, and encourage, and uplift you, and who help you to grow, and to thrive, and to become the best version of yourself, and you shouldn't settle for anything less, because you are worthy of love, and respect, and kindness, and compassion, and you deserve to be treated with dignity, and honor, and respect.

It’s also important to remember that you can't fix someone who is ungrateful, or unhappy, or unfulfilled, and that's not your responsibility, anyway, your responsibility is to take care of yourself, and to prioritize your own needs, and your own well-being, and to surround yourself with people who love, and support, and uplift you, and who make you feel good about yourself, and who help you to grow, and to thrive, and to become the best version of yourself.
