The spicing was subtle, but very nice. The chicken was moist and tender. I ommitted the oil. Thanks

    We enjoyed this recipe. For dietary reasons, I omitted the oil and cut back the salt to 1/4 tsp, & used lowfat buttermilk and it worked just fine for our tastes. I marinated overnight and the buttermilk acts as a natural tenderizer and left the chicken breast very moist, tender and juicy. Thank you Najwa for sharing the recipe.

    This is some serious bbq chicken. The sauce has such a wonderful, mellow flavor. The hint of each spice is there, and made me wonder what flavor I would experience next. Each mouthful was a true delight. I made the recipe exactly as directed. I might add another 1/8th tsp. red pepper flakes next time, but maybe not, because it is one of those wonderful dishes you don't want to mess up. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe.

    This is very tasty marinade for chicken. It is spicy but subtly so leaves a lovely after taste. The instructions couls be a little clearer. IE List of ingredients could start with 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or a whole chicken, skin on cut into quarters (or whatever your intent) And step one of the instructions is not clear. This is very minor and certainly did not detract from enjoying this wonderful recipe I have some (unused) marinade left over and I think I will try it on Prawns. Thanks Najwa
