Instructions to make Tandoori Chicken Tikka:
- Add the ginger, garlic and green chilli in a wet grinder and blend to a smooth paste. Mix the yoghurt with the gram flour in a bowl to get rid of any lumps to form a thick paste like consistency.
- Add the ginger, garlic chilli paste, paprika, chilli powder, garam masala and coriander powder. Also mix in the ground cinnamon, saffron and salt. Stir well and tip in the chicken pieces and mix well making sure to coat them in the thick marinade. Leave to marinate for a few hours or even overnight if you prefer.
- Soak wooden skewers in water. Preheat the grill indoor or out door on medium. Shake off the excess marinade and thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers and place them on a grill /wire rack. Cook under the grill for 15-20 minutes. Turn the skewers every 5 minutes & baste with melted butter until the juices run clear and they are cooked through slightly charred around the edges.
- Serve warm with roti or parathas sprinkled with chaat masala and lemon juice along with mint chutney and salads ❤️
I use either chicken breasts or chicken legs, both of which can be marinated then barbecued or cooked on a griddle. When ready to cook, set up your bbq for direct heat grilling. If you are using the tandoori chicken in a creamy curry such as chicken tikka masala, be sure to retain the marinade. Undoubtedly Tandoori chicken is the king of all tikkas in the tandoor repertoire. Amidst all the street food, kebabs, tikkas, biryanis and grilled meats I've scoffed down over the years in India and the UK; this dish is a firm fixture on every restaurant and street cart menu.
