Instructions

  • Cut two long slits into each piece of chicken.
  • Spread the chicken pieces out on a large platter.
  • Sprinkle half the salt and squeeze the juice from 3/4 of the lemon over them. Make sure this gets into the slits you have made. Turn the chicken over and repeat these steps with the remaining salt and lemon juice.
  • Combine the yogurt, onion, garlic, ginger and garam masala in a food processor or blender. Blend until you have a smooth paste.
  • Add the chicken and any accumulated juices into a bowl with the yogurt marinade. Mix well, making sure that the marinade gets into the slits.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 6-24 hours (the longer the better!).
  • Grill the chicken on a BBQ or bake in the oven at the highest possible temp for 20-25 minutes.

Notes

When we tried this recipe to take the photo, the marinade was very liquid and not a paste as described above.
