Chicken Shashlik

I have finally come to the conclusion that I spoil my family too much. always creating new recipes for them to enjoy, trying my best not to repeat meal ideas and making sure to incorporate all their favourite flavours. This chicken shashlik was no exception. I paired this delicious dinner with peri peri rice! Everyone really enjoyed this quick and easy chicken shashlik recipe. If you don’t like rice, switch it up with some seasoned potato wedges! You’ll really enjoy it.
