Description

Murg Malai Kebab, also known as Chicken Malai Tikka, is a luxurious kebab known for its melt-in-the-mouth texture and mildly spiced, creamy flavor profile. “Malai” means cream, and this dish lives up to its name with a rich marinade of fresh cream, cheese, yogurt, and aromatic spices.

Boneless chicken pieces are marinated for hours, allowing them to soak up the flavors and achieve incredible tenderness. The kebabs are then skewered and grilled or cooked on a tawa or in an oven until slightly charred and golden. The result is juicy, tender chicken that practically melts in your mouth, with subtle notes of garlic, white pepper, and cardamom.

Murg Malai Kebab is often served with mint chutney, onion rings, and lemon wedges and is a crowd favorite at parties and Indian restaurants.
