Bismillah... Last week I shared hubby's fave food, now I want to share mine. This recipe has been modified from the original, but is so delicious. The original recipe calls for lamb.

I don't eat lamb very often, however, the first time I ate the dish it was with succulent roasted lamb that was so mouth-watering that I had to ask the hostess for the recipe.

It is now my all-time favorite recipe.
Here it is...
Ingredients

The recipe calls for 3 pounds lamb cut into 1″ pieces
(for this particular meal I used 3 medium chicken breasts cut into one inch cubes) 
4 tablespoons oil
1 cup onions, chopped
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon tamarind paste

2 cups white vinegar
2 tablespoons apricot jam
½ pound dried apricots

1 medium sized red onion
Salt & pepper
Kabob Skewers



Directions
  1.  Wash hands & say Bismillah...
  2. Place the meat (I used chicken this time) pieces in a large bowl Season with salt and pepper, and garlic.
  3. In a saucepan, heat the oil.
  4. Cool, then add to the meat and toss well. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
  5. One day before preparing the sosaties, combine the dried apricots in a small bowl, cover, and let sit overnight in the refrigerator.
  6. Drain meat from sauce and reserve. Thread chicken and apricots (and onion) on Cast Iron Modern Grilling Kabob Skewers.
  7. Add the onions and sauté for 5-6 minutes, then add the curry powder.
  8. Sauté for another minute. Add the sugar, tamarind paste, vinegar, and jam and stir well.
  9. Brush sauce onto threaded meat/onions & apricots
  10. Grill in oven or bbq and serve with basmatti rice
By the way, this recipe is already pretty diet-friendly, but if you're really watching your weight, try sprinkling some Sensa onto your kabob!
ENJOY!
