Ingredients
- 1 kg Chicken Thighs

Instructions
1
Combine the marinade fixings in a large ziplock bag (or mixing bowl).
2
mix in the chicken and use your hands to make sure each piece is coated.
3
If using a ziplock bag, I find it convenient to close the bag then massage the bag to disperse the rub all over each chicken piece.
4
infuse overnight or up to 24 hours.
5
Combine the Yoghurt condiment dip fixings in a mixing bowl and toss together.
6
lid and put in the fridge until required (it will last for 3 days in the fridge).
7
fiery up barbecue/BBQ (or large heavy based skillet on stove) on medium high.
8
You should not need to fat it because the marinade has fat in it and also thigh fillets have fat.
9
But if you are worried then fat your hotplate/barbecue.
10
(See notes for baking)
Place chicken on the barbecue and prepare the first side for 4 to 5 moments until nicely charred, then turn and prepare the other side for 3 to 4 moments (the 2nd side takes less time).
11
Remove chicken from the barbecue and lid loosely with foil.
12
Set aside to rest for 5 moments.
13
TO dish up
carve chicken and pile onto platter alongside flatbreads, Salad and the Yoghurt condiment dip.
