| Ingredients |
| Chicken pieces with bone – 2kg |
| Turmeric Powder – 1 teaspoon |
| Red Chilli Powder – 2 teaspoons |
| Paprika(Capsicum Powder) – 2 teaspoons |
| Ginger-Garlic Paste – 2 teaspoons |
| Yoghurt – 2 Tablespoons |
| Garam Masala – 2 teaspoons |
| Dried Fenugreek Leaves – 1 Tablespoon |
| Mustard Oil – 1 Tablespoon |
| Salt – 2 teaspoons |
| Lemon juice – juice of 1 lemon |
| Instructions: |
| 1. Clean the chicken pieces. Make slits in the meat to make sure that the marinade gets in evenly. |
| 2. Add all the remaining ingredients to the meat. |
| 3. Mix well and keep aside for 1 hour. |
| 4. Preheat the oven to 230°C/450°F. If your oven has a circulating air mode/fan mode, choose that. This will help make the meat crispier on the outside. |

| 8. Cook for 15 more minutes. |
| 9. Serve hot and enjoy. |
