Tandoori Chicken

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup plain yogurt
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup onion, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 large chicken breast halves on the bone, skin removed
Lime wedges, onion rings, for garnish if desired

METHOD:

In a large bowl, whisk together yogurt, garlic, ginger, lime juice, and spices.

Place chicken in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add the yogurt marinade and seal the bag. Turn the plastic bag over several times to coat each piece of chicken with marinade. Refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Remove chicken pieces from the marinade and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake chicken for about 45 minutes or until done, basting often with the remaining marinade.

Serve chicken on a platter surrounded with a few lime wedges and onion rings, if desired.
