酸奶是一种理想的马林ade, as its acidity helps tenderize meat and it caramelizes beautifully when cooked over a high heat. In this recipe, yogurt is the backbone of a simple mixture (made with turmeric, onion, salt, and pepper) that takes just minutes to assemble and works magic on bone-in chicken thighs. Once grilled, the chicken is finished with a jolt of flavor thanks to lashings of chile-infused honey and a shower of tender herbs.
