Chicken Cheese Kebab

Chicken cheese kebab is one of the many variations of Chicken kebab. You cook this in the OTG (Oven Toaster Griller) or in a Microwave with griller. You can serve this for snacks or starter. I have even made chicken roll with this kabab and the kids loved it. We can also serve this with hot butter rice. We enjoyed chicken kabas at many restaurants and I try to emulate the tastes at home. This is first of the few kebabs I have prepared at home, so there will be more to follow. If you have never made kebab at home and only tried it in a restaurant try this once – its very easy to cook kebab at home.

  • Preparation Time: 10 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 25 minutes
  • Serves: 2

Ingredients required for Chicken Cheese Kebab:

  1. Chicken (boneless) – 400 gms
  2. Cheese (grated) – 4 table spoon
  3. Salt – half teaspoon
  4. Garam Masala – Half teaspoon
  5. Lemon juice – 1 table spoon
  6. Ginger paste – half teaspoon
  7. Garlic paste – half teaspoon
  8. Butter

Method of preparing this easy to prepare chicken kebab:

  1. Mix cheese, garam masala, lemon juice, ginger, garlic and salt (as per proportions mentioned above)
  2. Add the chicken to the paste and mix well
  3. Marinade for preferably 12 hours (if you are in hurry you need to marinade for atleast an hour)
  4. Pre heat the oven – 250 degree C for 5 minutes
  5. Add the chicken to the OTG/microwave sticks and brush the melted butter on the chicken
  6. Grill it at 180 degree C for 20-25 minutes (These were the ideal temperatures and time in my OTG, which I realized after cooking this dish for 4 times. You may have realize the optimum temperature in your OTG/microwave once you try this a couple of times. However you can start by setting the temperature and time I felt optimum)

Now its Chiken Cheese Kebab is ready to serve. You can garnish with a bit of black pepper, lemon, onion rings and tomato. Let me know how you liked it.

    Hi Sammy,

    Apologies for a late response. I was traveling in this festive holiday season.

    You may use cheddar cheese. Boneless chicken meat should be cut into small pieces.

    Hope you enjoy this kebab.

    Hi there,

    I am gonna have a go on this recipe today. just one question….. i am concerned about the butter or cheese (after melting) which will drop in the otg… ? Please help me with this query

  8. Runa Says:

    Hi Ashish,

    You should spread an aluminium foil (food wrapping foil) on the OTG tray so that your OTG does not get smeared with the melting paste that would get extracted when the chicken is heated.

    Let me know whether you liked the dish and how it went.
