Finely minced chicken combined with a fresh blend of onions, bell peppers, mint, and green chillies creates a moist, flavorful base for these Jhat Phat Chicken Mince Kebabs. A generous addition of tomato paste, paprika, and a mix of ground spices gives the meat a deep, savory profile, while corn flour and bread crumbs ensure the mixture holds its shape perfectly during cooking.
These kebabs rely on the bright, herbal notes of fresh mint to cut through the richness of the chicken. The texture remains tender on the inside with a nicely charred exterior, whether you choose to use a grill, a stovetop pan, or an oven. They offer a quick way to get a protein-packed meal on the table during busy weeknights.
Because the prep is straightforward, they are an excellent option for batch cooking. You can easily keep a supply in the freezer, making them a practical choice for meal prep or a reliable go-to for quick Ramadan suhoor or iftar snacks.
