Now take food processor and put chopped chicken pieces in it, put red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, cumin powder and salt. Now process for few seconds, please dont make it too smooth. If you dont have a food processor please use normal blender. 

Now pour this chicken mix into the bowl where we mixed onion and kept. Add yogurt and cream into it and combine everything well. If you want can add some salt also. 

Using your hands, mould the mixture into small balls, until the mixture gets over. Now keep this chicken balls into the fridge for 30 minutes. 

Pre heat your oven into 200 degree C for 5 minutes. Select grill mode. Once its preheated reduce temperature into 180 degree C. Now keep chicken balls into the hot grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes each side. Please take care not to burn. Serve hot with your choice of sauce or chutney.
