12 Chicken drumsticks and/or breast pieces
(skin removed)
- Take a wide and deep bowl about 12 inches wide and deep enough
to hold all the chicken pieces for marinade . Put in the bowl in the
following order and mix well:
1 cup plain yogurt plus one-cup water or 2 cups Buttermilk
1 1/2 tbsp. red chilli powder
1 tbsp. ginger powder or fresh grated ginger
2 tbsp. coriander powder
1 tbsp. garlic powder or 3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp. cumin powder

it is marinated, the better it will absorb the spices and the tastier
it will be. When you are ready to grill the chicken, apply melted butter
to the the chicken pieces with a brush or spoon all over and you are
ready to grill the chicken on the barbecue in the normal fashion.
