Chicken with Yoghurt and Spice
Spiced Yogurt-Marinated Chicken with Aromatic Herbs and Lemon
Ingredients:
1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh cilantro or mint, for garnish
Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions:
In a bowl, whisk together yogurt, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cayenne (if using), olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken to the marinade, coating thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat grill, grill pan, or skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove chicken from the marinade and cook for 5–6 minutes per side (depending on thickness), or until fully cooked and golden brown.
Let rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with lemon wedges.
