Grilled Tandoori Chicken Skewers Recipe
Step 1: In medium bowl, whisk together yogurt with tandoori paste and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cut chicken into bite-size chunks; add to yogurt mixture and stir. Refrigerate, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes or covered overnight.
Step 2: Cut unpeeled peaches into 4 wedges each. In bowl, toss together peaches, 1 tsp lemon juice, oil and 2 tbsp of the coriander.
Step 3: Thread chicken onto 4 skewers; thread peaches onto remaining skewers. Sprinkle both with salt to taste. Place chicken on greased grill over medium heat; grill, turning occasionally for 7 minutes. Add peach skewers; grill until juices run clear when chicken is pierced and peaches are warm, 2-4 minutes. During last minute of cooking, grill naan if using. To serve, top each naan with 1 peach skewer, 1 chicken skewer and dollop of raita. Sprinkle with remaining coriander.
Tip: To prevent peaches from spinning when grilling, thread skewer through top and bottom of each wedge.
