Ingredients
The quantities follow this count.
How to cook it
-
Slash each piece of chicken a few times down to the bone so the marinade can penetrate.
-
Whisk the yogurt, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, oil, all the spices, and salt into a thick marinade.
-
Coat the chicken thoroughly and let it marinate at least 20 minutes, or up to overnight in the fridge.
-
Heat the oven to 425F and arrange the chicken on a rack set over a foil-lined sheet pan.
-
Roast until deeply colored and cooked to 175F at the bone, about 35 minutes, turning once.
-
Finish under the broiler for 3 minutes for charred edges and serve hot.
