  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 4 teaspoons Hungarian sweet paprika
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin divided
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander divided
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground red pepper
  • 2 cups onion coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh ginger coarsely chopped, peeled
  • 2 teaspoons serrano pepper finely chopped, seeded
  • 8 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 1/2 cups plain low-fat yogurt divided
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice divided
  • 2 teaspoons salt divided
  • 16 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
  • Cooking spray

Recipe Method

1. Heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin, 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and red pepper to pan; cook 2 minutes or until fragrant, stirring constantly. Remove from pan; cool.

2. Place onion, ginger, serrano pepper, and garlic in a food processor; process until smooth. Add spice mixture, 1/2 cup yogurt, 2 tablespoons juice, and 1 3/4 teaspoons salt to onion mixture; process until smooth.

3. Transfer mixture to a large heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag. Cut 3 shallow slits in each chicken thigh. Add chicken to bag, and seal. Toss to coat. Marinate in refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.

4. Prepare grill.

5. Combine remaining 2 cups yogurt, 2 tablespoons juice, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon coriander, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl, stirring well. Cover mixture, and chill.

6. Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Place chicken on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 7 minutes on each side or until done. Serve with yogurt mixture.
