TANDOORI-SPICED CHICKEN BREASTS
Steps:
- Make spice paste:
- Mince garlic with salt and mash to a paste. Wearing protective gloves, mince chile (including seeds for a spicier paste) and in a bowl stir together with garlic paste and remaining spice paste ingredients.
- Make 3 diagonal cuts about 1/4 inch deep in each chicken breast and rub spice paste into cuts and all over chicken. Marinate chicken, covered, 30 minutes at cool room temperature.
- Preheat broiler and line broiler pan with foil. Halve onion through root end and reserve 1 half for sauce. Thinly slice remaining onion half, separating layers, and in a small bowl soak onion slices in ice water to cover while broiling chicken.
- Arrange chicken without crowding on rack of broiler pan. Brush chicken with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil and broil about 3 inches from heat 8 minutes. Turn chicken over and brush with remaining teaspoon vegetable oil. Broil chicken until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 6 minutes more.
- Make sauce while chicken is broiling:
- Mince enough reserved onion to measure 1 tablespoon and in a small bowl stir together with all sauce ingredients.
- Drain soaked onion and pat dry between paper towels. Top chicken with onion slices and serve with yogurt sauce.

[email protected]The marinade for this chicken is so flavorful. I let it marinate for a few hours before grilling it, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. It was juicy and tender on the inside, and crispy on the outside.
