Step by Step Method
Step 1
Remove skin and all visible fat from chicken; cut small slits into chicken to allow seasoning to penetrate; set aside.

Step 3
Remove chicken from pan and set aside.

Tips
- Serve with rice, hot breads such as naan or rotis, and vegetable dishes such as chole or saag, and possibly a salad.
- I also like to have fresh chilies and lemon wedges available as condiments also.
