Ingredients:

8 pcs of bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed, trimmed.
1 tablespoon lemon juice.
1 cup low-fat plain yogurt.
2 cloves garlic, minced.
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger.
2 teaspoons hot paprika.
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped peppermint.
1/2 teaspoon salt.
2 teaspoons paprika.
1/4 teaspoon cayenne.
Directions:

1: Place chicken in a large bowl. Add lemon juice and toss to coat. Whisk yogurt, garlic, ginger, paprika, mint and salt in a separate bowl.
Pour the yogurt mixture over the chicken and stir to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.

2: Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler. Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard marinade). Place the chicken on a broiler rack and broil until browned on top, about 15 minutes.
Reduce oven temperature to 205 degrees C and bake until the chicken is juicy and just cooked through, about 15 minutes longer. (Thigh meat will appear dark pink, even when cooked through.) Serve immediately.

TIP:
Chicken thighs are higher in fat than other cuts, but have the benefit of full-flavored, juicy meat. To minimize the fat, be sure to remove the skin and trim thighs thoroughly. bone-in thighs work best because they will retain their moisture better.
