Leave to marinade for 1-2 hours if possible. There two ways to cook chicken here. You could cook it directly in the spicy marinade for 1 hour at 300F. This results in giving everyone a lovely spicy gravy to pour over the chicken when eating. Or you could cook the chicken quite quickly without the marinade in the oven preheated to 450F for 25 minutes. This will give a crispy result without much juice, but delicious all the same. Either way, sprinkle salt over the chicken just before it goes in the oven. If you put the salt in the marinade from the beginning the chicken tends to dry out a bit. Serve with basmati rice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yield:<\/p>\n<p>Calories:<\/p>\n<p>Fat:<\/p>\n<p>Fiber:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 chicken, jointed into 8 pieces Grated rind and juice of 1 lemon 1 head of garlic, peeled but cloves left whole Seeds of 10 green cardamom pods, crushed 1 tsp. ground coriander seeds \u00bc &#8211; \u00bd tsp. chilli flakes \u00bd tsp. ground turmeric 3-4 T. olive oil Basmati rice, to serve Put the chicken pieces into a bowl.
