Preparation / Directions:
Mix all except chickens, butter, lemons and parsley. Spread yogurt mixture on chickens, inside and out; cover, refrigerate at least 4 hours but not more than 24.
Heat oven to 375f. Place chickens in greased roasting pan, 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 2 1/4 inches. Pour butter over chicken. Roast, spooning butter over chicken often, until drumstick meat feels very soft when pressed between fingers. About 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsely. To serve, carve or cut chickens into 8ths.
In India, a special pit-type clay oven, called a Tandoor oven, is used for cooking the chicken.
