Method
  1. Coat the chicken in the tandoori marinade and preheat the grill to a 220°C (Fan 200°C/Gas Mark 7).
  2. Place the chicken on an oiled baking tray and place under the grill for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through. Place on the highest shelf and brown for 2 minutes. Sprinkle over 2-3 good pinches of the tandoori seasoning, saving the rest for the table.

MADE WITH OUR DELICIOUS
Tandoori Marinade Kit - Classic

Tandoori food refers to grilled or roasted skewers of meat and vegetables cooked in a charcoal- fuelled tandoor oven, reminiscent of a BBQ char, but with savoury and spicy Indian flavours. If you are already a tandoori fan, our Classic Tandoori Marinade Kit is sure to be your new best friend! The marinade evokes that delicious restaurant tandoori taste, full of yoghurt tang, ginger, garlic and warming spices.

For Indian chefs, tandoori food takes a lot of training to master. But, with ovens and grills to hand - and now our tandoori Marinade Kits too - you can achieve that sought-after, mouth-watering marriage of spiced yoghurt coating and chary smokiness in minutes. We love using these kits to add bags of flavour to oven-roasted meats and veggies in the winter - and to add an Indian twist to classic BBQ food in the summer.
