Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: Combine chicken thighs with vegetable oil, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, paprika, salt, cayenne pepper (if using), and minced garlic. Mix well and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
