1 teaspoon black pepper

Salt to taste

70g tomato purée

1/2 cup yoghurt

1/2 cup of thick tamarind sauce

What to do:

Wash the chicken and marinate it with the ingredients listed above. Mix well and leave to marinate for about 3 hours, allowing the flavours to infuse thoroughly. Prepare your charcoal grill and cook the chicken on both sides, reserving the leftover marinade.

In a pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil and the leftover marinade. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the oil starts to bubble and the sauce thickens. Pour the cooked marinade over the chicken. Serve with a side salad, ugali and sautéed vegetables. Enjoy!
