Smoked grill chicken (no barbeque or oven needed)

"Chicken is love!" It doesn't matter what dish it is, if it is chicken, then go on, I am ready for it. Let it be fried chicken, chicken curry, butter chicken, or my absolute love chicken biryani, I am always hungry for it. My friends can relate to this scenario, hahaha! I remember those days when I was in college, we were always craving a chicken biryani. What we needed was just an excuse, so we could go out to have an appetizing biryani. Well, let's talk about our today's dish now, Indian-style smoked chicken. Now whenever we hear smoked chicken, we imagine a giant smoker or a barbeque station, right?

And it goes really well with roti/chapati, Jowar (Sorgulam) roti, or rice. Even man y kids have a soft spot for bhindi (including me too when I was a kid) and demands this mouth-watering dish to be packed in their school tiffin boxes. And since bhindi is a healthy veggie and has added health benefits, Indian moms don't usually reject such demands unless bhindi is not available in their refrigerator. I remember when I was a kid I was getting bhindi almost once a weak in my tiffin...
