How to Make Indian Inspired Chicken With Raita
- In a large resealable bag, whisk together 1 cup plain yogurt, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the bag. Ensure chicken is fully coated in the marinade.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your broiler to high heat.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place the marinated chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
- Broil the chicken 6 inches from the heat for 15-20 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Flip halfway through.
- While the chicken is broiling, prepare the raita.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup diced cucumber, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix well.
- Serve the broiled chicken immediately alongside the refreshing cucumber raita. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.
