    great recipe! in indian cooking we marinate chicken in yogurt all the time - adding spices like ground cumin, ground coriander, and also lime juice, paprika, and a chili powder like you did. tastes great!! i will try your combo too!

    Thanks for posting! Sounds like just the chicken breast change I need this week. What's the best way to bake this in the oven? Have you tried? Thank you.

    Can you do this as a chicken burger?
  • You could make the marinate into a dipping sauce for chicken burger
