Chicken tikka

Ingredients

Chicken

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon salt

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (i used 2 1/2 lbs chix thighs - yes!)

1 cup plain yogurt (i used fage 2-% - yes!)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 garlic cloves (2tsp), minced (more)

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger (a liitle more)

Directions

Put oven rack in middle. preheat the broiler. Set a wire rack inside of a foil-lined baking sheet.

Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and dip each piece in the yogurt mixture. You want a relatively thick layer coating the chicken. Transfer the chicken to the wire rack.

Broil the chicken until it is cooked through (to an internal temperature of 160 F), about 10-18 minutes, flipping the chicken over halfway through the cooking time. (The cooking time will depend in large part on the thickness of your chicken pieces.)

Notes

From a CI recipe for chicken tikka masala (the sauce was just ok, but the chicken was great and easy)
