- 2 tablespoons ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
- 2 small serrano peppers, seeded and stemmed

- 1/8 teaspoon chaat masala, optional, plus more for seasoning
- Pinch red chile flakes
- 2 to 3 sprigs fresh cilantro
- Juice of 1 lime, plus 1/4 teaspoon zest

- Special equipment: About 20 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for about 1 hour before cooking
- For the marinade: Place the chicken in a reseable plastic bag.
- Whizz up the oil, cilantro, lime juice, coriander, garam masala, serrano peppers and ginger in a food processor until smooth.
- Season with salt and black pepper.
- Pour over the chicken cubes, massage into the meat, and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
- For the chutney: Toss the peaches, ginger, honey, vinegar, chaat masala, if using, chile flakes, cilantro and lime juice and zest into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Season with salt and black pepper.
- Pour into a serving bowl, setting aside 1/4 cup for basting the chicken.
- For grilling the chicken: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread 4 to 5 chicken cubes onto two skewers at a time, lightly wiping off excess marinade with a paper towel.
- The cubes should be lightly touching, not tightly packed.
- Grill the skewers on one side until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Flip and baste with the reserved chutney.
- Grill the other side until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes, then flip and baste again.
- Grill to seal the chutney glaze, another 30 seconds per side, then remove from the heat.
