Spicy Tandoori Chicken

Tandoori chicken is a popular North Indian dish that consists of chicken thighs and is cooked with yogurt and spices. Like all other Indian chicken recipes, this dish is very delicious and spicy and you can have it in your perfect family dinners or can even enjoy it at family gatherings.

As the name describes tandoori chicken, the right way to cook this dish is in traditional Indian tandoor (cylindrical clay oven) but if you don’t have one, you can simply make it in the grill skillet or any pan available. Have it as a sideline with white rice or as it is.
