Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Preheat the grill/broiler to high and line a grill pan with foil, or prepare a barbecue/grill for cooking.

  2. Step 2.

    In a large bowl, combine the tomato purée, lemon juice, crushed garlic, garam masala, paprika, fenugreek powder, tomato ketchup, and runny honey. Stir until well mixed.

  3. Step 3.

    Add the skin-on, boneless chicken thighs to the bowl. Use your hands to massage the marinade into the chicken flesh, ensuring each thigh is really well coated.

  4. Step 4.

    Place the chicken thighs on the prepared grill pan or barbecue. Cook for 6–8 minutes on each side, until the chicken is tender, golden, and beginning to char slightly at the edges. Serve hot with salad alongside.
