I have not tried this dish yet; however, the yogurt-spice combination sounds really delicious along with the raita. Prep time does not include marinating time. Ingredients:
1 cup plain yogurt |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground coriander |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper |
chicken, cut into 8 pieces (about 4 pounds chicken parts) |
2 medium cucumbers (peeled, seeded and thinly sliced) |
1/3 cup plain yogurt |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix 1 cup yogurt, 2 cloves garlic, salt through red pepper in a large re-sealable food storage bag to blend. Add chicken; marinate in refrigerator 4 to 24 hours.
2. Preheat broiler. Cover baking sheet with foil. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet. Broil 6 inches from heat about 30 minutes or until cooked through, turning once.
3. Meanwhile, make Raita. Mix cucumbers, 1/3 cup yogurt, cilantro, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Serve alongside chicken.
