Skinless legs and thighs are marinated in a tenderizing mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and spices and the meat is slashed to the bone in several places helping the marinade penetrate and the chicken cook more quickly. The raw chicken is marinated in yogurt flavoured with spices. I like to use a really thick Greek yogurt for this so you get a generous layer of the marinade on the chicken which in turn changes to a "crust" when you cook it. The heat will seal in juice inside the chicken. To avoid dryness on the skin and the surface of the chicken, baste with oil half way and turn the chicken over while baking.
