Excellent chicken! I almost always enjoy Indian spices, and this combination was very nice. I marinated vegetables in a similar spice mix (rice vinegar with cumin, ginger, coriander, and cayenne pepper) to serve with it.

    This was a nice dish. I ended up grilling mine on our foreman since its still too cold out here, but it turned out wonderfully juicy and flavorful. It tastes "spicy" as most indian dishes do, but also very complex. You can taste hints of all the different spices rather than one standing out too much. I marinated ours most of the day. It comes out a lovely yellowish color that is sure to brighten any plate!

    The spice blend was magnificent but didn't penetrate the chicken at all, thus there was not a lot of flavor on the cooked chicken. I'd make this again if I could figure out how to marinate the chicken better.

    Very flavorful, low fat & slightly spicy hot. Of course, I love hot food, so to some, it may be more "medium hot". I only marinated mine for about 45 minutes. Next time, I will marinate it for a few hours to soak up more of that great flavor. Definitely will have again!
