Tandoori Chicken
Ingredients:
2 1/2 pounds meaty chicken pieces (breasts, thighs, or drumsticks)
16 ounces plain yogurt
1 tablespoon grated ginger root
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup chopped chutney
1 medium cucumber, sliced
Method:
Rinse chicken and pat dry. Place chicken pieces in a plastic bag set into a deep
bowl.
For marinade, combine yogurt, gingerroot, garlic, paprika, cinnamon, cumin,
coriander, salt, pepper, and cloves. Pour over chicken. Close bag. Marinate in
the refrigerator overnight, turning bag occasionally.
Remove chicken from bag, reserving marinade. Place chicken pieces, bone side

tender and juices run clear, brushing with reserved marinade during the last 10
minutes of grilling time. Serve with chutney and sliced cucumber.
