Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to its highest temperature and arrange a shelf in the top third of the oven.
  2. Cut 3 diagonal slits across the top of each chicken breast and prick the chicken pieces with the sharp point of a small knife.
  3. Place them in a single layer in a large baking dish and rub both sides with the salt and lemon juice. Leave for 5 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, combine the cream with the garam masala, cayenne, cumin, paprika, garlic and ginger in a bowl.
  5. Stir this mixture well and pour over the chicken. Rub it into the meat and leave for 10 minutes (or longer - up to overnight).
  6. Lift the chicken pieces up - most of the marinade will cling to them - and place them in a single layer in a shallow baking pan lined with aluminum foil.
  7. On top of each, sprinkle a little salt, pepper, garam masala, cumin, cayenne, mint and lemon juice.
  8. Put into the top third of the oven and bake for 15 minutes or till the chicken is just white all the way through.
  9. Serve immediately, minted side up.
