Chicken Malai Boti is a very luscious chicken based dish which turns out to be a great option while planning an evening of BBQ! I and my husband love hosting BBQ evenings, it’s a great way to reconnect with friends, have some amazing conversations and relish some of the awesomest delicacies.
While Achari Paneer Tikka are made during all Summer BBQ parties, this time, I was determined on trying something new and interesting. Chicken Malai Boti perfectly fit into that plan. I had already purchased fresh boneless chicken, therefore, aligning other ingredients for making this dish turned out quite quick and easy.
With the purpose to grant a superb flavor to Chicken Malai Boti, I had marinated chicken not once but twice. The first marination was mostly made of lemon juice and spices and the second one was full of fresh cream, hung curd, and other rich ingredients.
Once the marination got done, I stored the chicken for 24 hours in order to make sure that it absorbs all the flavours and turns out delicious to the core. By the time, we were all set to grill them and preparing piping hot Chicken Malai Boti by grilling.
Finally, it was all grilled and relished with nothing but smiles. You could have fun with your friends as well over Chicken Malai Boti. Make sure to read its recipe and replicate it without fail, get going:
