Tasty Tandoori Chicken

Tasty Low Fat Tandoori Chicken

This is one of my favourite dishes. Simple to make and really tasty. You can make it mild medium or really hot depending on your taste. Ideal for snacks, suppers with dips or served with rice and pitta bread for a filling dinner.



You can use chicken legs, wings, thighs or breasts. Just choose your favourite part of the chicken and add to the following marinade. Best to leave overnight to get the real flavour but I have left for just an hour and it still tastes great.

To Make the Marinade:- 
Medium to large tub of yogurt (plain or low fat plain will do)
tsp tomato sauce or paste
3 cloves of crushed garlic
tsp lemon juice
3 tsp olive oil
few dried or fresh chilli's if you like yours spicy
tablespoon of tandoori paste or powder
grated ginger (optional)

Mix together then before adding your chicken score the meat so it will absorb the sauce. Leave to marinade then when ready to cook ensure your over is preheated to med to high heat. Place chicken or tray or cooking rack uncovered and cook for aprox 20 - 30 minutes depending on what cuts of meat are using. You can use this marinade for chicken chunks and then grill if you want something quicker.Add to a pita bread with chopped cabbage for a really healthy and filling lunch.
