Transport your taste buds to India with our Proudly Indian Tandoori Chicken recipe. Immerse succulent chicken pieces in a harmonious blend of aromatic spices, yogurt, and smoky flavors. Whether you're firing up the grill or using your oven, this dish promises an explosion of authentic Indian taste that will leave you craving for more.
Mix yogurt, tandoori powder, mustard oil and salt. Mix the paste with chicken pieces and let stand for at least 6 hours.
After marinating is done, arrange pieces in tray, cover with foil and bake at 180°C for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 125°C and then bake and broil alternately in 30 minute cycles for 2 hours.
Occasionally take the tray out and re-arrange the pieces before putting them back. If there is too much water inside, drain the water. If the chicken looks dry, sprinkle some water mixed with lime juice on them.
After baking is done, take the pieces out and brush off the excess tandoori paste from them.
Put the pieces in an open tray in the oven for 2-3 minutes (just to get them to look crisp and dry).
