This recipe was from my own experiments done many a times and it has been always relished by my friends. It is quick and easy way of enjoying something succulent and spicy
Once I had just marinated chickens legs with lemon, salt and garlic. It was sort of bland for my taste. After baking for 10 mins I realized I need to put some extra zinc to spice it up . I had some left over pickle residue so I just applied generously on the baked legs and further baked it . It was very delicious. I tried doing it many times with varieties of pickles mixed, lemon, mango etc and it was good . Well if anyone has some interesting variation , lets spice up the recipe.!!!!!!!!!!
Ingredients
Chicken legs of your choice
Lemon juice
Salt

Well if u still need that chatpati flavour,sprinkle chat masala and squeeze lemon juice.

The Chicken tasted divine. Never imagined that the humble pickle could be used this way too.

Hi Shibani,
I tried the recipe and just added some extra chili powder to the chicken to make it hot and sizzling. It turned out exactly as you said. Thank you very much for this easy recipe. Keep posting more easy ones for us boys who would like to spend as little time as possible in the kitchen and yet have a delicious meal.One fit for the Maharajas. Any thing from the Mughlai kitchen coming up soon?
Cheers
