Chicken Tikka

I love barbecue, but have become tired of barbecue sauces.  Indian barbecue is a wonderful alternative.  I tried this recipe yesterday and it was a hit.  The flavors are subtle so people who shy away from spicy need not fear.

INGREDIENTS

1 (3-4 pound) chicken

1 1/2 cups yogurt- I used plain greek yogurt

1 tbsp paprika

4 garlic cloves, pressed

1/8 tsp chili peppers

1 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp groung cumin

1/8 tsp cloves

DIRECTIONS

Wash the chicken and cut it up.  Remove skin and cut off as much of the fat as possible. Dry the pieces.

For the marinade, combine all the remaining ingredients.

Mix the marinade and the chicken and leave it all day in the fridge, turning once or twice.

When on the barbecue, turn the chicken often so that it does not burn.
