To prepare the sauce put butter in a pan with chopped onion and garlic, add remaining ginger and cook it until it changes color. Then add the spice mixture and cook couple of minutes and add milk or cream and remaining lemon juice and cook couple of minutes more. Take chickens from the fridge separate excess sauce and bake them in the 550 F oven about 10 minutes, or you can put them on skew and grill. Then take them from the oven and put it in the pan together with the excess sauce and cook about 10 minutes, until chickens are cooked well. They usually serve it with Indian Bread, which is like flat bread with butter or ghee. Enjoy!
