2 tbsp garlic-infused oil
1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground cardamom
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

For serving

lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
fresh cilantro, roughly chopped, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken pieces completely dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, cut 2–3 deep slashes through the skin and into the flesh of each piece — this allows the marinade to penetrate and helps the chicken cook evenly.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, garlic-infused oil, grated ginger, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, turmeric, cayenne, cardamom, salt, and lemon juice until smooth and evenly combined.
