Grilled Chicken Ciabatta Sandwiches



Ingredients:

  • 2-1/2 pounds chicken, cut into pieces
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 1-1/4 lemon, juiced
  • 1-1/2 cups and 1 tablespoon plain yogurt
  • 5/8 onion, finely chopped
  • 1-1/4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons grated fresh ginger root
  • 2-1/2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons yellow food coloring
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons red food coloring
  • 2-1/2 teaspoons finely chopped cilantro (for garnish)
  • 1-1/4 lemon, cut into wedges (for garnish)


Method:
  1. Remove the skin from the chicken pieces, and cut slits into the pieces lengthwise.
  2. Place the chicken in a shallow dish, and sprinkle both sides of the chicken with salt and lemon juice. Set aside 20 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, onion, garlic, ginger, garam masala, and cayenne pepper. Mix until smooth. Stir in the yellow and red food coloring.
  4. Spread the yogurt mixture over the chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours (the longer the better).
  5. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  6. Cook the chicken on the grill until no longer pink and juices run clear.
  7. Garnish with cilantro and lemon wedges.
