Nancy, Russ and I both enjoyed this VERY much thank you. I used bone-in skinless thigh fillets (personal preferance) which I marinated for the full 24 hours, then baked in the oven for 40 minutes. They were delicious, moist and tender and went beautifully with our raita and Recipe #181101 A simple but really great meal after a long day driving. -
Great chicken dish. So easy and quick to put together. THe ziploc bag makes for a quick cleanup and easy to make sure the chicken has been fully coated in the marinade. I used large breast fillet pieces, so cut them in half through. Served with some basmati rice and a shredded carrot and cucumber salad. All my family enjoyed this winner dish. Photo also posted.

This chicken is packed with flavor! If you are a curry fan, you will love this one! I loved the fact that it was prepped and ready to throw on the grill for an easy, quick meal. We served this over rice with broccoli and a salad on the side. Easy, healthy dinner. Thank you! -
Delicious chicken! I had bone-in thighs, and after removing the skin I put them in the marinade, and then life happened and they stayed in there for 2 days! We had snow, so they didn't make it out to the grill, either. I baked them at 350 for 40 minutes, and they were very flavorful and moist. Obviously this is a very resilient recipe as well as tasty! We will be using this recipe again in the future, we really enjoyed it! Made for FYC -
Absolutely fabulous! I made the marinade just as directed and marinated one 2.5# bag of thawed chicken tenderloins for 24+ hours then grilled (didn't take so long on the grill because the tenderloins were smaller than an entire breast -- maybe more like 5-6 minutes per side). Served with a Cucumber Yogurt Raita (Food.com recipe #231041) - mmmmm! and a Moroccan Chickpea & Zucchini Salad (Food.com recipe #310837) that I made the previous day. When it came time to serve, it all came together with ease and was very impressive. Guests were pleased. Thanks so much!
