Let’s get cooking.

  1. 01

    Cut chicken into even 3 cm cubes. Mix yogurt, cream, minced ginger and garlic, lemon, cumin, pepper and salt. Coat chicken, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

  2. 02

    Thread loosely onto metal skewers. Heat a grill pan over medium heat and brush with oil. Cook skewers 14–18 minutes, turning often so the dairy marinade does not burn.

  3. 03

    Cook until the chicken reaches 74°C at the centre. Rest briefly and serve straight away for the softest texture.

A little kitchen care

Use a food thermometer: poultry 74°C, ground beef 71°C, fish 63°C. Cook eggs until whites and yolks are firm. Keep raw and ready-to-eat foods separate.
