Grilled Chicken With a Mint and Yoghurt Sauce image

A recipe I like to make at least once a month. We love chicken, mint and curd so this recipe is a fave. I have adapted it from a recipe I found on the net.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons lime juice or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced (optional)
1/2 inch gingerroot, minced (optional)
3 tablespoons plain yogurt
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
4 tablespoons chopped of fresh mint
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Make gashes in the chicken flesh at several places.
  • Mix the lime or lemon juice, honey, yogurt, seasoning, cumin powder, turmeric and ginger-garlic mince and half the mint.
  • Marinade the chicken with this paste for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Cook the chicken under a moderately hot grill until thoroughly cooked and golden brown, turn the chicken occasionally during the cooking.
  • Sprinkle with remaining mint, serve with potatoes and tomato salad.
  • Note: I add and subtract ingredients for a slight change in flavour.
  • I may use the garlic alone or no garlic, ginger, turmeric at all, depending on my mood.
