Directions

Step 1

Clean and pat dry the chicken thoroughly. Make deep cuts on the surface to help absorb the marinade.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix yogurt, lemon juice, and ginger garlic paste to form a smooth base.

Step 3

Add cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric, paprika, biryani masala, and salt to taste.

Step 4

Pour mustard oil into the mixture and whisk until the marinade is well combined.

Step 5

Rub the marinade generously over the chicken, making sure it goes deep into the cuts.

Step 6

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 7

Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with foil and place a wire rack over it.

Step 8

Arrange the chicken pieces on the rack and bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 9

To get a charred effect, switch to broil mode for the last 5 minutes of baking.

Step 10

Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve hot with lemon wedges and mint chutney.
