Steps:

- Blend to a smooth paste.
- Put the yogurt in a bowl large enough to hold the chicken.
- Stir in the spice paste.
- Add the chicken and make sure all pieces are covered in the marinade.
- Break the cinnamon stick in two and tuck it in with the chicken.
- Cover and marinate for at least two hours and as much as overnight.
- Set the oven to 220 C or 425°F.
- Bake the chicken in a shallow dish for 30 minutes or until cooked through.
- The yogurt should have formed a dark brown crust.
- Sprinkle with mint leaves.
