Chicken in Yogurt Sauce (Middle-Eastern Style)

I must remember to take pictures of my dishes.... !

Time: 25 minutes
Effort: Easy
Serves: 4

Ingredients
4 chicken thighs, skinned and boned 
2 shallots, sliced
2 cloves of garlic, sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
A little warm water
2 tbsp ground Coriander
1 tsp Coriander seeds
Salt & pepper to taste
1 cup Greek or any plain yogurt

Method
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet until very hot. Add the shallots and garlic and saute quickly until golden. Reduce the heat a little and add the chicken. Saute until browned on all sides. Reduce the heat to medium/high, add the coriander, salt & pepper, lemon juice and a little warm water (about 2 tbsps) - stir to coat the chicken with the spices and to deglaze the pan. Simmer on medium until the chicken is well cooked. (About 10 minutes). When ready to serve, warm up the yogurt and mix into the chicken. This dish is delicious as it is served with either Pita bread or Basmati rice.
