Step 1
In a large bowl, mix salt, ginger-garlic paste, vinegar, and cold water. Soak 4 chicken thighs with leg pieces in this mixture for about an hour.
Step 2
After soaking, fry the chicken on medium-low heat until golden brown, cooking each side for around 15-18 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tikka masala, salt, coriander powder, cumin powder, Kashmiri chili powder, crushed coriander seeds, chili flakes, and yogurt to make a flavorful marinade.
Step 4
Coat the fried chicken pieces with this marinade and let them sit for another hour.
Step 5
When ready, place the marinated chicken in a baking dish, add lemon slices and green chilies on top, and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 25-30 minutes.
Step 6
Once done, your delicious herb-roasted chicken is ready to enjoy!
Serving Ideas To Try
Serve this with roasted vegetables or a light green salad for a balanced meal. Mashed potatoes or a side of rice also complement the flavors well. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top adds a bright, zesty finish.
How To Keep It Fresh
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To keep the skin from getting soggy, separate the meat from the skin before reheating. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
