Recipe of chicken tandoori is very easily available and there is no *My version* for it . I just followed my instincts for amount of spices used and amount of time for marination. So here we go.
Serves 3-4
Ingredients :
1 kg of chicken (clean it and put in boiling water for few mins.)
Ginger-Garlic paste
2 tbs Garam Masala (acc.to your taste )
1 and half cup of curd
2 tsp of red chili powder
lemon juice (I used 1 whole lemon )
and instead of common salt I used black salt (for marination and taste both )
First of all make small incisions with knife or prick with help of fork. Rub salt and lemon juice on chicken and keep it aside dipped lemon juice and salt for at least half an hour.
Now wash it and keep it aside. Beat curd with some water and now add ginger-garlic paste ,garam masala , red chili powder and salt into curd.
Now dip all chicken pieces in marination prepared and keep them in fridge for at least 2 hrs ( I kept for for around 5 hrs )
Keep the chicken pieces on grill rack and set your microwave at Combi (Micro + Grill ) for 9 mins. Take them out and check , if uncooked get them back in microwave again cook them for 2-3 minutes more at Combi (Micro + Grill) mode.
Take them out again grease them with refined oil with help of brush (brush assures no excess oil touches your chicken :P ) .
Get them back in oven and Grill them for 6-7 mins.(until chicken turns brown ) . Take them out flip them and again back in microwave for 6-7 mins.
Its all ready to eat, serve it with lemon and Chaat Masala.
Initialy,I was scared like hell to use microwave , but if I can manage to use it ,then anyone can :)
