Tips

  • You can use lamb or beef mince instead of chicken.
  • The recipe is a combination of Adana kebab and seekh kebab.
  • Use less red chili powder if using regular chili powder.
  • Let the mixture marinate for at least one hour (overnight for best results) or cook straight away if needed.
  • Remove the kebabs halfway through baking, drain any liquid, and redefine the separations for optimal results.
