Crisp Indian-Spiced Chicken with Cucumber-Tomato Raita
It's amazing how flavorful and crispy a store-bought rotisserie chicken can become when basted with butter and a few Indian spices. It's especially delicious served with a cooling raita. (Be sure to salt the vegetables for the raita before you start preparing the chicken: They can be draining while you cook.) Quick Chicken Recipes

Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Serve With
Sautéed spinach and warm nan or warm pita bread.
Suggested Pairing
Pair the chicken with a dry, or slightly off-dry, German Riesling. Its peachy-floral flavors stand up to the sweet, warm spices in the rub without overwhelming the mild chicken.
