De-skin Chicken thighs – 2
Ginger-Garlic paste – 1 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder – 1/8 tsp
Salt – 3/4 tsp
Red chili powder – 1/2 tsp
Cumin powder – 1/2 tsp

Coriander powder – 1 tsp
Pepper powder – 1/4 tsp
Lemon – 2 thin slices ( or add 1 tbsp vinegar to the marinade )
Directions
Marinating the chicken 2 – 3 hrs in advance or stored overnight in the fridge would let the chicken absorb all the spices for an enhanced flavor before baking it.
1. Make small cuts on the thighs.
2. Prepare the paste for the marinade in a small bowl with all of the spices and some water mentioned under ingredients.
3. Using your fingers, marinate the chicken.

Spicy baked chicken thighs are ready.
