Marinade

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, lemon juice, tandoori masala, minced garlic, grated ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 4

    Arrange Chicken

    Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are spaced apart for even cooking.

  3. 5

    Bake the Chicken

    Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
