peeled and chopped1 small onion, grated
1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

Step 1: Marinate by mixing all the above first 8 ingredients and apply all over on the chicken pieces. Cover and chill for 6 hours or overnight.
Step 2: Put chicken on skewers and grill them 5 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through. (If you don't have a holder then you can put the skewers directly on the grill however, you will have to watch them carefully so they do not burn the food. )
If you have a skewer holder then put that on the grill first. Put in each skewer one at a time. Once they are on close the grill top to seal in the heat. After about 1-2 minute go and check on them
Step 3: Dressing:
Garnish with onion rings, tomatoes, and coriander leaves and serve hot with green chilli chutney.
