About

The taste of these tender, marinated pieces of chicken breast is sublime. Children love them. Everyone loves them. They are simple to prepare and equally good hot or cold, so you can take them on picnics. They are also ideal for outdoor cooking. If you have them hot, eat them with rice and perhaps a bowl of Yogurt with Cucumber and Mint and a vegetable. If eaten cold, serve salads with them. If you find you don’t have all the spices needed for the marinade
