Directions
Use a sharp knife to make slanting gashes on the chicken on all sides. Place in mixing bowl to marinate the chicken in the combined masala for about 4 hours.
Prepare a baking dish and brush the bottom of the dish with a little oil.
Carefully place the chicken pieces in the center of the dish and brush with some ghee on top.
