As a big fan of yogurt based marinades for chicken (for example chicken tikka), this one immediately caught my eye. unlike tikka, you only marinate this one for 30-45 minutes so it doesn't require much planning ahead. i have not tried this one yet but wanted to make it public for the zaar world tour. Cooking time include time to marinate the chicken.
