CHICKEN MALAI BOTI

CHICKEN MALAI BOTI

Assalam o Alaikum and welcome to everyone after a lapse of 7 months. During this period I was not in a position to post anything and really missed my page and my viewers.  It is all set now and here I am with a new dish for you

Malai Boti either of Chicken or Beef is a very popular BBQ dish in Pakistan, children also like it very much because it is less spicy and very soft. Though it can be prepared with more spices for spice lovers the term Malai Boti or Malai Kabab are meant to be soft and less spicy of the Boti and Kabab family.

This dish is often served in Weddings and similar parties and it is experienced that the live BBQ of Malai Kabab or Boti is always among hot demand items.

After having a feast of Beef and Mutton dishes during Eid ul Zuha season, a change to the softer side of the meat will be welcomed everywhere.
