Okay the ingredients you would need for this recipe is:

yogurt 1/2 kg ( use it for marination plus mint chutni)

cooking oil 2 tablespoon

salt to taste (if the prepared masala doesn't have salt to your taste, although it won't be required)

FOR MINT CHUTNI:

1 green chili

few leaves of mint

Salt to taste

black pepper a pinch of it

PROCEDURE:

• Take the chicken pieces and poke it with a fork so that the masala penetrates into it well.
• Put the chicken pieces in bowl and add to it 2/3rd of the yogurt. Mix it well.
• Now to this add the roast masala packet.
• Pour in the vinegar, lemon juice and oil..Mix all the ingredients well and marinate the chicken for at 2 hours.
• Preheat your oven at 200 C, 30-45 minutes before placing your chicken into it.
• Grease the dish with cooking oil and and place the chicken pieces on it. Carefully pour the left over material to the chicken pieces so that it is completely covered.
• Cook the chicken in oven for 45minutes to 1 hour. Keep rotating the sides of the pieces so it gets cooked from both the sides well.
• Use a knife to check whether chicken is cooked properly or not.

Now the chutni:

Blend the yogurt with mint leaves and green chilies. Add salt and black pepper.

Serve the chicken with the chutni!
