Top tips
Soak your skewers in water the night before to avoid them burning when it comes to cooking
To get the best flavour and most tender chicken have the chicken marinade in the mix as long as possible.
Instructions:
Step 1: Pre-soak your bamboo skewers
Pre-soak the bamboo skewers in water the night before or a couple of hours before (so they don’t burn during the cooking process)
Step 2: Make the marinade
This can also be made the night before. In a bowl mix 1/2 squeeze of lemon juice, 1/2 tub of Greek yoghurt, salt and pepper, 2 heaped Tbsp. of Tandoori paste
Step 3: Prepare the Tzatziki
Mix 1/2 cucumber finely chopped, 1/4 tub of Greek Yoghurt, salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon, mix, taste and set aside.
Step 4: Prepare the chicken
Cut the chicken into cubes, and place in the bowl with the marinade, ideally leave to sit in the fridge for minimum 30 mins if cooking on the day but ideally 2 hours or overnight. This is a great one to meal prep ahead of time.
Step 5: Cook the chicken
Take the bamboo skewers out the water and start assembling the skewers with the meat
Air-fry for 15 minutes, turning in the process and once cooked serve with yoghurt and mango chutney and rice
