Reshmi Kebab

 Since we bought oven from my mom, I've been trying to make use of it mostly. That gave way to try and make some new dishes. We tasted this recipe in a restaurant near our home, instantly he loved it. For me it took time to get used to this dish since I am always used to have spicy chicken. Hubby gave a new perspective to have chicken even if its not hot and spicy. But I loved this one when I had second time, because its so rich and just melts in your mouth. Since then recipe hunting began and finally I ended up with this!
