Tandoori Chicken Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, tandoori masala, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Brush the chicken pieces with vegetable oil. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char. The internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F).
