How to Make Juicy Lamb Tikka on Stove π©βπ³π₯
Step 1: Marinate the Lamb π₯£
Add boneless lamb pieces to a large bowl. Add oil, lemon juice, ginger garlic paste, double cream, tikka masala, meat tenderizer, and all the spices. Mix everything very well using your hands. Wear gloves π§€ to protect your hands from spice rashes. Good mixing helps the lamb absorb flavours and stay juicy.
Step 2: Rest the Marinade β³
Cover the bowl and let the lamb marinate for at least 1 hour. For best taste and extra tenderness, marinate overnight in the refrigerator βοΈ.
Step 3: Prepare the Pan and Skewers π’
Lightly spray oil in a non-stick or grill pan. Thread the marinated lamb onto tikka skewers, just like shown in the video π₯.
Step 4: Cook the Lamb π₯
Place the skewers in the pan and cook on low flame with the lid covered for about 20 minutes. Uncover the pan and cook on medium flame until all the water dries and the lamb turns golden. Check that the meat is tender and fully cooked π.
Step 5: Give Charcoal Smoke (Dhungar) π₯πͺ΅
Heat a piece of charcoal until red hot. Place it in a small bowl inside the pan, add a few drops of oil on the charcoal, and immediately cover the pan. Let the smoke infuse for 2β3 minutes for authentic BBQ flavour π.
