- Add the marinade to the chicken (in the zip lock bag) and give another good mix. Make sure all the pieces get well coated with the yogurt mixture.
- Store in the refrigerator to marinate overnight or minimum of 4 hours for best results.
- At the time of barbecuing, pre-heat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Get the baste ready by mixing all the ingredients together.
- Once the Grill is ready, spray some cooking oil on the grill so that the chicken does not stick to the grill.
- With tongs, place the chicken on the grill and close the lid. Allow it to cook for 5 minutes.

- The Chicken needs to cook for approximately 18-20 minutes total.
- Remove Chicken into a platter. Always let it sit for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to settle in.
- Serve with Mint Chutney or Pickled Onions.
