Marinade and Chicken
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.
Add Chicken to Marinade
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and ensure they are thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for better flavor.
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and slightly charred.
