2. In a glass bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice or vinegar, garlic, ginger, cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, cardamom, cloves, black pepper and salt
3. Stir until well-mixed, then pour the mixture over the chicken and rub it into the flesh, turning the chicken several times
4. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. (Do not marinate for longer than 2 days.)
5. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking
