Tandoori Chicken is the best dish for an appetizer or who loved spicy chicken. Chicken is a white light meat and has lots of proteins present in it, and people always prefer it the most. Tandoori chicken can be eaten as a lunch or dinner or during parties.Tandoori Chicken is originated from the Indian subcontinent. The main ingredients are chicken, yogurt, and spices. Tandoori chicken has a unique taste as it's often cooked in charcoal or cylindrical clay oven.

I also used an alternative method to cook this Tandoori chicken.
