Tandoori chicken at home | Tandoori chicken in oven | Tandoori chicken recipe preparation with step by step photos and a quick video. What’s is the secret of making tandoori chicken? Do you want to make it a restaurant-style? It’s all about roasting chicken which is marinated in yogurt and spices. Tandoor means, a cylindrical clay oven to roast the chicken. We might get access to clay oven in cities but we could use the oven to make it. I have used thick curd in this recipe to hold masala on the chicken well. The final outcome is yummy and more flavourful tandoori chicken.
