Method of Cooking

Step 1

To prepare this easy chicken recipe, first make sure that the chicken is properly washed. Now, combine hung curd, ginger paste, garlic paste, red chilli powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, black pepper, salt and garam masala in a large bowl and make a marinating paste. 

Step 2

Evenly coat the chicken pieces in the marinade and let the flavours sink in. You can keep the chicken refrigerated for 8-10 hours or even overnight.  Once done, preheat the oven at 190 degree Celsius. You can also use a grill pan to grill the chicken. The key step is to flip the chicken only once, so each side needs to stay on the grill for at least 20 minutes. 

Serve with a dip and some seasoning.
