Servings:6
These legs get a triple blast of flavor: first from a soak in lemon juice and salt, then from a pungent marinade of spices and yogurt (which also tenderizes the meat), and finally from a bit of butter brushed on at the end of cooking. Removing the skin from your chicken legs before grilling may seem like a waste of potentially crisp deliciousness, but it helps the marinade penetrate the meat more easily, as does making deep slashes in the meat before marinating.

Preparation
Prepare the chicken:
- 结合柠檬汁和1茶匙。在大型拉链顶塑料袋中盐盐，并按摩袋，直到盐晶体溶解。
- 从鸡腿上拉出皮肤。用锋利的刀在每条腿上几乎对骨头进行2或3个深斜线。将鸡腿扔在柠檬汁中，密封袋子，然后冷藏15分钟。
Marinate the chicken:
- Mash the ginger, garlic, and 1 tsp. salt to a paste with the side of a large knife and transfer the paste to a small mixing bowl. Whisk in the remaining marinade ingredients. Add the marinade to the chicken legs and massage the bag to thoroughly coat the legs. Seal the bag and refrigerate the chicken for at least 4 hours but preferably 12 to 24 hours.
Grill the chicken:
- 准备气体或木炭烧烤火，以通过中高温（400°F）进行间接烧烤。
- If using a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side. Put a 9×13-inch foil drip pan on the grate next to the coals and fill it halfway with water. Replace the grill grate.
- 如果使用燃气烤架，请将9×13英寸的箔液盘放在无活动的燃烧器上，并在中途将其填充。更换烧烤炉。
- 用钢丝刷清洁炉排，然后用钳子用纸巾或浸入油的布擦拭炉排。
- Arrange the legs over the drip pan and away from the heat. Grill, flipping once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads 170°F, 25 to 30 minutes.
- 将鸡肉转移到盘子上，并用融化的黄油刷每条腿。用香菜叶，洋葱切片和石灰楔子装饰并食用。
Serve withGrilled Naan Filled with Herbs and Cheese或者Basmati Rice Salad with Mango and Cucumber.

fortkcook|07/04/2014Easy and delicious. I already had boneless skinless thighs on hand, so used them with excellent results. Grilled off the fire for first 20 minutes (10 per side), then another 8 mins or so direct heat to get a nice char.

Chicken was crispy and moist, delicious. Maybe could have been spicier?
