Tandoori Chicken Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Traditionally, tandoori chicken calls for pieces of meat to be marinated in yogurt and spices, then baked in a cylindrical, clay tandoor oven. Most of us don't have one at home, but you can still enjoy the flavorful indian dish using a regular oven. Tandoori chicken is also renowned for its vibrant red color, which comes mainly from the spices used. If you think you can use up the old spices hanging around in your cupboard, think again spices lose their color and their potency over time, so when making tandoori chicken at home, invest in fresh spices and the best quality you can afford.
