Instructions

1
Soak saffron in warm milk for 15 to 20 minutes.
2
In the meantime, dry roast the cinnamon stick, black cardamom seeds, green cardamom seeds, pepper corns and cloves. Pound them to a powder (not very fine).
3
In a mortar and pestle grind the green chillies to a paste. (Using a pinch of coarse salt will help)
4
Mix all the ingredients together and your marinade is ready.
5
Ensure that you pat dry the chicken cubes.
6
Transfer the chicken in a bowl
7
Add the marinade to the chicken cubes and mix it well so that all pieces are well coated.
8
Cover the bowl with a cling film and put it in the refrigerator.
9
Leave the chicken to marinate over-night. (I marinated for almost 18 hours and the result was moist and tender chicken tikkas)
