Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, lemon juice, vegetable oil, garam masala, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground turmeric, minced garlic, minced ginger, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss them until well coated. Make sure each piece is covered with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

Next, preheat your grill or oven to high heat.

If using a grill, grease the grates with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking. If using an oven, preheat it to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and place them on the grill or prepared baking sheet.

Grill the chicken for about 10 to 15 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through. If using an oven, bake the chicken for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until cooked through.

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill or oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

Lastly, garnish the Tandoori chicken with freshly chopped cilantro.
