Marinade and Chicken

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground turmeric, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well until smooth.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add it to the marinade. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers. Brush the grill with oil to prevent sticking. Grill the chicken for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked and slightly charred.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with naan or rice and your favorite chutney.
