Ingredients
- 6 chicken
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt
- 1 tsp ginger paste
- 1 tsp garlic paste
- 1 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- to taste salt
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 1 charcoal
- 1 tsp ghee
Instructions
- 1Remove the skin from the chicken pieces and cut slits lengthwise on each piece.
- 2In a medium bowl, combine the plain yogurt, garlic paste, ginger paste, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, lime juice, and salt to taste. Mix until smooth, then coat the chicken thoroughly with the yogurt mixture. Cover and let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- 3Preheat a grill pan over medium‑high heat. Place the marinated chicken on the pan and cook each side for about 10‑12 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink and the juices run clear (total grilling time about 20‑25 minutes).
- 4While the chicken is grilling, prepare the tandoori smoke: using tongs, light a piece of charcoal over a gas flame until it glows red‑hot and turns grey. Transfer the hot charcoal to a small steel cup, drizzle 1 tsp of ghee over it, and allow it to smoke.
- 5Immediately after removing the chicken from the grill, place it in a large bowl, cover the bowl tightly with a lid, and quickly add the smoking charcoal cup to the bowl. Let the chicken sit covered for 1½ minutes to absorb the smoky flavor, then remove the lid and discard the charcoal.
- 6Serve the hot tandoori chicken immediately, optionally with fresh lemon wedges or a side of rice.
