Tandoori chicken – soooo good ❤️

The cooking is simple, the ingredients are simple to put together, why would you not want to create your own restaurant quality tandoori chicken??? Before I get on….a very simple tip – I use a skewer to cook above a dish to allow the hot air to circulate the meat like a tandoor oven.

The recipe again is taken from the legend that is Dan Toombs aka The Curry Guy.

Take your chicken and dice into cubes. I only use thighs due to the flavour however is you have breast meat that’s perfect. Once diced add the juice from 2 lemons, 3 tbsp of garlic and ginger paste, a good pinch of salt. If you want the full look add some red food colouring, give it a good mix and leave this to do it’s magic whilst you move onto the next stage.

For the rest of the marinade – whisk a cup of greek yogurt then add the following – 1 tbsp of cumin powder, 1 tbsp or coriander powder, 1 tbsp of garam masala, 1 tbsp of tandoori masala, 1 tsp of turmeric, 1 tsp of paprika, 2 green chillies diced, 3 tbsp of finely grated parmesan, 3 /4 tbsp of diced coriander leaves, 1 tsp of salt and 1 tbsp of ground black pepper. Mix well. Add your chicken mix and stir well, cover and leave in the fridge for 24 hours. Let the flavour party to begin!!

Marinade after 24 hours in the fridge.
The magic before it happens ❤️
