Tandoori - Style Chicken

3/11/2015

Tandoori-Style Chicken is an Indian dish that is very healthy and tasty. Nothing better than eating a piece of good chicken and knowing that it is healthy for you. Gluten free, low in fat and packed with spice. I served this dish with mint cucumber yogurt dip (which I will share later on another post), rice and stir-fried green beans.

Ingredients
    For the first step of marinade
2 pounds of skinned, boned chicken thighs
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons lime juice
 

    For the second step of marinade
2 cups of fat free plain yogurt
1/2 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped

2 shallots, chopped (optional)
1 piece of fresh ginger (about 1 inch) chopped
1/4 piece of jalapeno pepper seeded, chopped
2 teaspoon garam masala
 
Methods
Fist step
  • Cut the chicken thighs into equal sizes.
  • Mix salt and lime juice together.
  • Pour into the meat, mix well and cover with saran wrap.
  • Set aside and prepare the second step of marinade.

Second step
  • Mix all the rest of the ingredients together. Put them into the blender and blend well.
  • Pour the mixture into the meat that marinated with salt and lime juice.
  • Cover up and put in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
Note: You can let it sit in the fridge for up to 24 hours (ideally for working mom or dad who also cook, right?)

Cooking
  • Turn the oven on broil.
  • Place the meat into to the broil pan (has holes in it for the juice to drip down, and also has the pan to hold the juice) in one layer.
  • Put the broil pan on the top shelve.
  • Bake for 10 minutes each sides.
Serve with rice, mint cucumber yogurt dip and vegetable dish.
