Tandoori chicken

It's my latest favorite for the simple fact that its oil-free and tastes simply superb! It only comes with a wait of 2-4 hours since the chicken needs to be marinated. It can be marinated for fewer than 2 hours but, I personally think that's not long enough to allow the marinade to be absorbed by the chicken.

Ingredients:

Chicken: 6 drumsticks
Yogurt: 4 tblsp
Tandoori chicken masala: 2-3 tblsp
Ginger: 1 tblsp (crushed)
Lemon: 1-2 tblsp
Grilling temperature: 375 F

Procedure:

Place chicken drumsticks in a bowl Prick them with a fork. Sprinkle tandoori chicken masala over the drumsticks. Rub each piece to evenly spread the masala. Add rest of the ingredients and mix well. It blends best when mixed by hand. Close the bowl with a lid and refrigerate for 2-6 hours.

Pre-heat oven to 375 F. Place drumsticks on a baking tray. If needed, brush them with a little oil. Bake for about 30-40 minutes or until done.

Your snack for the evening or appetizer for your party is ready!
