  • Place the marinated chicken drumsticks in the hot pan. Sear them until golden brown on all sides. This creates a flavorful crust.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the cooked chicken from the pan and set aside on a serving platter.
  • Add water to the pan. Use a spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. These drippings add depth of flavor.
  • Simmer the pan sauce until it slightly thickens. This concentrates the flavors.
  • Pour the pan sauce over the chicken kebabs. Sprinkle with chili flakes and freshly crushed black peppercorns for an extra layer of spice and aroma.
  • Serve the Shahi Tangdi Kebabs hot and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

Expert Tips

  • For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or ground cumin to the marinade.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill. Leave space between kebabs for even cooking.

Storage Instructions

  • Store leftover kebabs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in a microwave or oven, being careful not to overcook.
