Shemin’s Tandoori Chicken

Homemade tandoori chicken is fantastically easy to do. Tender and succulent with a hint of spice, a great recipe for the BBQ in summer or to make under the grill or in the oven. You can make a super quick version of this with just our Tandoori Blend, yoghurt, ginger, garlic and salt as the marinade, it is still very delicious. Try this recipe with Shemin’s Curry Powder too.

Cook on a high heat on the BBQ or under the grill on high, turning occasionally until slightly charred and cooked through. If using the oven, then cook for 20 mintues at 100°C / 180 Fan / 400°F / gas mark 6 and then check if done.
Make the cucumber and mint raita by mixing together all the ingredients.
