Loved the dish. Easy to prepare and we liked the flavors. Bar-b-qued it. Only thing I changed I did not remove & cover with foil to continue cooking because this would only steam it. I made a foil tent over it and it cooked as it should - also cooked it a little less as I don't like dried out chicken.

    I was so excited to eat this - I marinated it all night long and cut it both lengthwise (thin) and across (small). It smelled great, looked great, but infortunately we werent able to eat more than a couple pieces. The cardamom was SO strong (used reommended amt) that we were unable to eat it. I will try this again with maybe only 1/4 tsp. and update my review to let you all know how it REALLY is. =)

    This is very good,and easy dish to make. The only thing I would change about this if you have sensitive taste buds is to cut the paprika and chili powder in half. I did serve this with some cool plain yogurt on the side, which helped cool the spices a bit. But my DH loved it as is. Thank You for this recipe.
