CHICKEN DRUMSTICK GRILL RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Put the cashew nuts in a bowl and cover with enough boiling water from the kettle to cover. Set aside for at least 2 hrs to soften. Drain the nuts, then blend until smooth in a small food processor with the lemon juice.
• Mix the nut paste with the yogurt in a large bowl, and add the lemon, ginger, garlic, turmeric, chilli powder, carom seeds (if using), garam masala, cumin, black pepper, and cream.
• Using a sharp knife, make 2-3 slashes on each chicken drumstick and coat them with the spiced yogurt. Cover the bowl and leave the chicken to marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hrs, or overnight if you have the time.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the ghee or oil in a large roasting tin and heat it in the oven until it is really hot.
• Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the roasting tin. Spoon half the marinade over the legs and return the tin to the oven.
• After 15 mins, turn the legs over and spread over the remaining marinade. Put in the oven for a further 15 mins, until the chicken juices run clear when pierced with a knife.
• Preheat the grill to its hottest setting and grill the chicken for 3-4 mins until browned. Transfer to a serving dish, scatter with red onion rings, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
