Tandoori chicken - easy oven recipe

This is an easy recipe for a cold or rainy day that you can use to make Tandoori chicken in the oven. You can use the same ingredients for grilling. 

3lb chicken

For marinade:

1/2 cup yogurt

1 tsp ginger paste

1 tsp garlic paste

3 tsp red chilli powder (if you want it really spicy, or make it 2)

1 tsp corriander powder

1 tsp cumin powder

A pinch of turmeric

Salt to taste

1 tsp of any tandoori paste that you have

Fork the chicken, and marinate for at least 2 hours. 

Place the chicken on a flat baking dish. 

Cook at 450 degrees for 20 minutes, then broil it for 7 to 10 minutes to make it crispy.

If you have the patience to turn the pieces over, then broil for 5 to 7 minutes on each side. 

Squeeze lemon juice over the chicken before broiling, and after turning the pieces over. This will keep it juicy.  

Serve with freshly sliced onions and squeeze a little lemon juice on the top.
