Chicken in Spicy Yogurt Sauce





Very fragrant, and saucy!  I think best served on a bed of rice, however mashed potatoes would be delightful as well.


4 chicken thighs, skinless
1 cup plain yogurt
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, parsley (we used celery leaves.. don't judge worked out great)
1 tbsp curry powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp paprika
2 tsp lime or lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter (for pan)


Rinse chicken, pat dry.
Lightly score chicken (shallow cuts in chicken)
Place chicken in large plastic bag (ziploc)
Mix all other ingredients together (minus butter)
Pour over chicken
Mush sauce all around chicken 
Refrigerate up to 24hrs, turning bag occasionally


Heat pan to medium heat and melt butter
Add chicken and all sauce
Bring to boil, then simmer with lid on for 45-50mins 
Once chicken is cooked, remove
Boil sauce for 5mins to thicken.
Enjoy!
