Directions: Tandoori chicken #ChickenRecipes #FEM5K

  • STEP 1.Wash and clean chicken leg quarters. Pat dry and set aside.
  • STEP 2.Add oil which helps to yield a crisp outer texture when pan seared.
  • STEP 3.Yogurt acts as a tenderizer and also helps to keep the meat moist and juicy while cooking.
  • STEP 4.Add lemon juice, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, Kashmiri chili powder, ginger garlic paste, black pepper powder, tandoori masala, garam masala powder and salt.
  • STEP 5.Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
  • STEP 6.Cover and refrigerate for few hours, preferably overnight to soak up more flavor and to keep the meat juicy and moist.
  • STEP 7.Heat a grill pan over high flame and place the marinated chicken legs leaving enough room between them.
  • STEP 8.Cook and sear for 10 minutes over high flame. Then cover and cook for 20 minutes over medium flame.
  • STEP 9.As it cooks it will start to collect steam on the lid, use all the water droplets to deglaze the pan.
  • STEP 10.Flip the chicken to cook the other side. Brush some oil on top or use the juice from the chicken to baste.
  • STEP 11.Again cover and cook for another 30 minutes.
  • STEP 12.At this stage, the chicken will be 95% cooked. Flip again and pan sear for few minutes or until the masala browns.
  • STEP 13.Brush with some butter to add more flavor and turn off once all moisture is absorbed. For smoky flavor - place chicken legs on a chapati wire roaster or roti jari and flame over direct flame on stove top or place a small piece of hot charcoal in a cup and place it in the pan along with the chicken. Cover it for few minutes which will flavor the chicken legs with smoky aroma.
  • STEP 14.Serve as a starter or as a side for any meal!
