Ingredients

1 cup plain yogurt
1 red onion, finely chopped
1 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
3 cloves garlic, crushed
¾ teaspoon garam masala
¾ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground turmeric
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
cooking spray

Steps:

Combine yogurt, red onion, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, garam masala, cumin, cayenne, and turmeric in a bowl. Place chicken breasts into yogurt mixture and flip to coat; cover bowl with plastic and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat oven to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C). Spray a baking pan with cooking spray.
Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and thread onto skewers. Discard used marinade. Lay skewered chicken into baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is browned with a few blackened spots and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). [See Note for grilling instructions.]

I had some trouble finding the right skewers for this recipe. I ended up using wooden skewers, but they burned a little bit.

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

I'm always looking for new ways to cook chicken, and this recipe fit the bill. The chicken was so flavorful and tender, and the yogurt marinade really helped to keep it moist.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I just shredded some leftover chicken and added it to the marinade, and it turned out great.
