Chicken… Personally, I loved this word. Also, all the chicken dishes are my favorite. I taste near about all chicken dishes in foreign and country also, and I make my mission to share my all this chicken idea with all of you. So please stay with us.
Today I will discuss a new Chicken recipe with is especially famous for its easy method and also for its taste. This dish is made with Chicken and Yogurt. So without waste our time I start the recipe. Let’s begin …
Preparation of Lemon Yogurt Chicken
- First, clean all the chicken in a bowl nicely and ready all the cooking ingredients in front of you. Because if you see all the ingredients are present in front of you, then you will keep charged for cooking.
- Now keep a big bowl and take all the primary ingredients like chicken, garlic paste, lemon juice, Olive oil, salt, pepper and also Yogurt simultaneously and whisk together very gently. Then add lemon zest with it and mix it again. Keep your mind that all the mixture makes a nice coating on the chicken.
- Now it’s the time to marinate it. So take a zip-top plastic bag for it. Put all the chicken mixture in it and squeeze out the excess air from it and seal the bag. [ If you don’t have a Zip-top bag, then you can also use a starch plastic which you can buy from any grocery shop in your locality. ]
- Now you have to place it a cool place for marinating like Refrigerator for 2 or 3 hours.
Grill process
Now take off the chicken from the fridge and remove it from the plastic. Keep some time to become it at normal temperature or room temperature. [* Don’t grill the chicken as quickly as remove from the fridge. ]
- Now preheat the grill and claim the most important process.
- Mix ½ cup yogurt and 1 tbsp lemon juice in a small bowl and set it aside.
- After the grill top is heated put some oil on the grate and make it medium-high heat.
- Gently shake the excess of the mixture and place all the chicken pieces on the grill top. Season with the pinch of salt and pepper for more taste.
- Cooked through 3-5 minute preside thereafter put on the opposite side. Grill until it became brown. I think this total procedure will take about 30 to 35 minutes.
Thereafter serve it with lemon wedged, coriander leaf and mint leaf, and the side of the plate with some yogurt –lemon mixture which you keep the side before the grilled.
[ N.B: For extra taste, you can use vinegar. At the time of grill you can give a light coat of vinegar on each side of chicken with the help of a brash ]

Notes
- If you don’t have a BBQ grill, you can use a grill pan as an alternative.
- I always use green chilies (raw cilantro), but you can also use red chili powder.
- Many of our Indian friends are like a little bit of sugar in every food. So you can also add 1/2 tbsp of sugar at the time of marination.
- Green chutney (Coriander+Mint+tamarind) is also a good serving with this grilled chicken.
