Cumin1 tsp
Onion1 large
Zucchini1 large
Ghee3 tbsp

Cilantro0.25 cup

Method

1

In a mixing bowl, combine plain yogurt, garam masala, ginger, minced garlic, lime juice, paprika, cumin, and salt. Whisk until smooth.

2

Pat chicken pieces dry. Add to the marinade and turn to coat all sides evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 24 hours for deeper flavor).

3

Cut onion into chunks, bell peppers into large pieces, and zucchini into halves or chunks. Toss vegetables with ghee, salt, and black pepper in a separate bowl.

4

Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400–450°F). Lightly oil the grill grates with ghee.

5

Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess. Grill chicken pieces 12–15 minutes, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 165°F.

6

While chicken cooks, grill vegetable pieces in a grill basket or on skewers for 10–15 minutes, shaking or turning halfway, until lightly charred and tender.

7

Arrange grilled chicken and vegetables on a plate. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges and prepared raita on the side.
