What's your favorite chicken recipe? I'm especially looking for recipes that can be used with bone-in legs/thighs, rather than whole chickens or chicken meat.

Yogurt also works if you bake them. I like to mix various spices in yogurt, spread it all over the chicken in a baking dish and cook at 350-400 for about an hour. Whether grilling or baking, it's good to put slashes through the meat with a knife to let the marinade get into the meat more (and it cooks faster). The yoghurt keeps it from getting dry, and as the water evaporates and it mixes with the chicken juice, it takes on a totally different consistency that works well as a thick sauce (and it nicely crackles the top).

I've done something like eeyorerin's grilled version with garam masala and curry. I also like doing it with a creole style spice mix of cayenne, paprika, marjoram, salt and black pepper.
