Who hates a perfect grilled chicken. Specially the ones with the lovely chat grill marks on them. I love those so much, the grill marks will make them so appetizing and gives a lot more flavour..
The key to get the perfect grill marks is so easy. The first thing you have to remember is1)The grill pan has to be super hot when you put the chicken in.
2)Dont oil the grill pan, instead oil the chicken.
3)Dont keep on flipping the chicken, just keep them on one side for 5 mins or so, then flip it. If you keep on flipping them, then they wont get the char marks.

I used a simple spicy yogurt based marination, and it is spicy, tangy and very flavourful. I will share many more variations soon.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
