- Make 2-3 shallow cuts (1/4â deep) on the fleshy side of each chicken leg. Dress both sides of each leg with lemon juice and salt and set aside (at least 20 minutes).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt and lemon juice.
- Grind together all the spices; add the spice mixture to the yogurt.
- Pat the chicken legs dry and add to the marinade (freezer bags work great for this).
- Marinate in the refrigerator overnight, turning at least once.
- Shake excess marinade off of the chicken.
- Brush the chicken with a 1:1 mixture of garlic butter and oil.
- On a generously oiled grill, cook the legs over medium-high flame for 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes. Warning: there will be flare-ups!
- Serve with lime wedges (to be squeezed over the meat at the time of eating).
