Made this on Friday for a BBQ with friends.
3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 cups plain yogurt, divided
3 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 cloves garlic, minced
Directions
1.Make shallow crosswise slits in the meat of the chicken parts to help absorb more flavor.
2.Place 1/2 cup yogurt, cumin, coriander, cilantro, paprika, turmeric, salt, pepper, and garlic into a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, and stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups of yogurt. Pour over the chicken parts, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
3.Preheat grill for medium heat.
4.Lightly oil the grill grate. Remove chicken from the marinade, and discard any remaining marinade.
