SPICY YOGHURT CHICKEN
From the BBC Good Food's "40 best chicken recipes" booklet. Can either be done in the oven, or griddled, or BBQ'd - would taste great whichever way you choose. I served it with a salad and new potatoes, but I can't help thinking it would be fabulous in half a french stick, with salad & mango chutney included!
