Tandoori Chicken

Tandoori Chicken is a classic Indian dinner that marinates chicken legs in a creamy yogurt base, blended spice mix and freshly squeezed lime juice then cooked in the oven. This its a MUST have dinner recipe!

There is something about using turmeric spices to create a delicious chicken dinner. If you love Indian food as much as I do try this Butter Chicken or this Slow Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala.

Easy Tandoori Chicken

Tender chicken meat on the inside covered by a light and hint of spicy flavoring on the outside. This chicken is irresistible and a hit in our family! The creamy marinade soaks into the chicken creating a flavorful and delicious chicken leg that falls right off the bone. Every bite is full of flavor and tastes AMAZING!

This chicken tandoori is perfect to have on a busy week night and ready quickly. Simply marinate the chicken legs earlier in the day or the night before. When ready to bake, place the chicken legs on a cooking rack over top a baking sheet and bake until cooked inside. These chicken legs will WOW your family and leaving you wanting more.

What is Tandoori Chicken?

Tandoori chicken is a popular Indian dinner. It is a main dish that is prepared by marinating the chicken in a yogurt and spice blend and then baked or roasted in a tandoor. A tandoor is known as a clay oven. Not everyone has a clay oven. Using a grill, electric or gas oven can also create the same tender chicken as the tandoor oven does.

A hot tandoor oven is a cylindrical shaped clay oven that roasts the chickens outside layer quickly. The tandoori chicken has a vibrant color because of the spices turmeric, chili powder and even food coloring is often added into the marinade. Together this is the perfect combination!

Chicken Tandoori Ingredients:

Simply combine all the ingredients together and create a beautiful red marinate that will coat the chicken. This marinade will soak into the chicken creating a delicious and flavorful chicken.

  • Yogurt: I used a plain Greek Yogurt for the creaminess and gives a thick consistency.
  • Lime: Juice from a fresh squeezed lime.
  • Chili Powder and Paprika: A hint of spice!
  • Turmeric: This is a blend of spices that help create that red color tone.
  • Garam Marsala: Make this homemade or purchase it already mixed together.
  • Garlic Cloves: Minced together
  • Chicken Legs: Bone-in, skinless chicken legs are what I used for this recipe. 

Bake Some Chicken!

The chicken is easy to prepare and bake. The oven is warmer than usual for baking chicken to help give the chicken leg a crisp outside with a tender inside. This combination is full of flavor and the chicken turns out to have a hint of spice with tender chicken.

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a medium sized bowl combine the yogurt, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, turmeric, garam marsala, and garlic.  Add the chicken legs and let marinate for 1-2 hours.
  2. Bake the Chicken: Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with a wire rack and place the chicken on top.  Bake for 20 minutes and then flip the chicken baking for 20 more minutes until cooked throughout.

Why is Tandoori Chicken Red?

This tandoori chicken is a beautiful bright red that has vibrant colors from the spices that are used when marinating. Chili powder and cayenne pepper give it a nice red hue that makes this chicken stand out from the rest. Turmeric also adds to the coloring and gives it a vibrant look once it is baked.

Using less chili powder and cayenne pepper and more turmeric gives it a bright yellow or even orange coloring depending on how spicy you are wanting to make your marinade.

How Do you Make Tandoori Chicken Red?

Tandoori chicken is a classic dish that is served with a bright red coloring. Making your own turmeric can help you create the best red hue that you are looking for when baking your chicken.

  • Kosher Salt: 1 teaspoon
  • Garlic Powder: 1 teaspoon
  • Onion Powder: 1 teaspoon
  • Ground Ginger: 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika: 1 teaspoon
  • Turmeric: 1 teaspoon
  • Cayenne Pepper: 1 teaspoon
  • Garam Masala: 1 Tablespoon
  • Cayenne Pepper: 1 teaspoon

How to Make Garam Masala Spice Mix:

If you have a love for Indian food these spices will already be in your pantry of seasonings. This is easier to create than purchasing the seasoning if you cannot find it in stores.

  • Cumin: 2 Tablespoons
  • Coriander: 1 tablespoon
  • Cardamom: 1 tablespoon
  • Ground black pepper: 1 tablespoon
  • Cinnamon: 2 teaspoons
  • Ground cloves: 1 teaspoons
  • Nutmeg: 1 teaspoon

Other Cuts of Chicken:

If you are looking for another cut of chicken rather than a chicken leg, simply use chicken breast or thigh to make the same chicken. Chicken breast tend to have a thicker and harder skin to bake. To help tenderize the chicken breast, take a fork or knife and poke small holes to allow for the marinade to soak into the chicken. This will help the chicken bake evenly and create a tender chicken inside.

What to Serve with Tandoori Chicken:

Tandoori chicken is a filling main dish that can be eaten alone with an extra squeeze of lime juice. Adding a few sides to this chicken dinner completes the meal and creates an Indian classic dinner. A few of my favorite side dishes are rice, a side of lettuce and/or bread to help with the heat from the chicken.

Butter Chicken

If you’ve never had Butter Chicken, you’re in for a treat! This classic Indian dish takes chicken thighs and simmers them in a creamy tomato sauce packed with spices until the chicken is irresistibly tender. Serve over steamed jasmine rice and serve with warm naan bread!

If you love butter chicken, don’t miss out on our Slow Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala, this Coconut Curry Soup, or these Thai Chicken Skewers.

Classic Butter Chicken

If you’re a fan of Indian food, then chances are you’ve had classic Butter Chicken before. And if you have, chances are even higher that you have become a cult follower much like myself. If you’re not familiar, Butter Chicken is a classic Indian dish consisting of chicken thighs simmered in a creamy tomato sauce until the chicken is super tender and infused with the most delicious, creamy spice-infused tomato sauce.

If you’re a novice to the Indian food game, the spice the spice list we use may be unfamiliar to you, but don’t worry, because these days, you can find all of them at pretty much any grocery store. Garam masala is the dominant spice used in butter chicken (we will talk about the other spices below), and it has the most wonderful curry-like taste to it. It’s packed with spices, but it’s not “hot” spicy, in it you’ll find notes of coriander, cinnamon, cloves, cumin, and pepper. It’s quite heavenly.

Spices in Butter Chicken:

  • Garam masala. We talked about garam masala up above, but the full list of ingredients includes cinnamon, mace, peppercorns, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and cardamon pods. So if you don’t have any of the spices below, you can always double up on the garam masala instead.
  • Cumin. Ground cumin adds a nice smoky note to the butter chicken.
  • Fenugreek. While this ingredient is definitely optional if you can’t find it, it does add a lovely savory element to the butter chicken.
  • Coriander. Ground coriander is actually the seed version of cilantro, so it has a similar flavor profile to it. I find that ground coriander is a little more smoky in flavor and love the way it compliments ground cumin.
  • Tumeric. If you’ve never used turmeric before, now is a great time to start. This vibrant orange spice give dishes a lovely yellow hue and has a nice warm ginger-like flavor to it.
  • Brown sugar. To balance out all those spices, you need a little bit of sweetness and brown sugar is my sugar of choice.

Ingredients in Butter Chicken:

  • Chicken. Classic butter chicken is made with chicken thighs. Chicken thighs are a lot more flavorful than chicken breasts and they can hold up to a long-simmered sauce. Unlike chicken breasts, chicken thighs become super tender and shred really well when they’ve cooked for a semi-long period of time.
  • Yogurt. Whole-milk yogurt is a classic ingredient in a lot of Indian dishes. Here, we use it to marinate the chicken, since it helps to tenderize it in the process.
  • Garlic, onion, and ginger. I mean, is any dish complete without a little garlic and onion?
  • Crushed tomatoes. You could also use whole tomatoes and crush them yourself, but buying them pureed already is such a time-saver.
  • Lemon juice. I love the acidic bright flavor lemons adds to butter chicken, it’s a must!
  • Heavy cream. A classic component of butter chicken is the cream sauce, and to achieve that, we use a good amount of heavy cream. It’s what makes butter chicken so luxurious.

Let’s make Butter Chicken!

  1. Marinate the chicken. Marinating is a really important part of making butter chicken.Here’s what we do: Add chicken to a large plastic baggie. Add in yogurt, garam masala, cumin, tumeric, garlic cloves, ginger, and salt. Zip the bag shut and massage marinade into the chicken. Marinate for at least three hours, but no longer than 12. I find that you don’t need to marinate the chicken much longer than a few hours, but of course, if you’re prepping ahead of time, you can do it further in advance.
  2. Cook the chicken. Heat a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet to a medium-high heat. Add a little bit of olive oil and then sear the chicken. Sear for 3-4 minutes until brown and crusty, flip over and do the same on the other side.
  3. Make the sauce. Once the chicken is brown, remove from the pan. Turn the heat down to medium and add more olive oil, onions and garlic. Sauté until slightly softened. Stir in tomato sauce, remaining garam masala, remaining cumin, remaining salt, and tumeric, fungeek, coriander, lemon juice, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Add the chicken back to the pan and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Finish it off! Stir in the cream. Simmer another 2-3 minutes. Serve over rice with naan.

Substitutions and Tips and Tricks for Recipe Success

  • Make sure to get all the excess marinade off before searing the chicken otherwise, the bottom can burn.
  • If you don’t want to use heavy cream, you can swap out coconut milk or even light coconut milk.
  • If you’re really not into chicken thighs, you can use chicken breasts, but make sure you don’t overcook them.
  • Any kind of whole-milk plain yogurt will work, it doesn’t matter if it’s regular or Greek.
  • To add some sweetness and texture, I love to add in a handful of raisins and cashews. So yummy.
  • When searing the chicken, don’t try to flip it until it easily releases from the pan.

What to Serve with Butter Chicken:

  • The classic partners to butter chicken are steamed Jasmine rice and warm naan.
  • If you want a more substantial side, you could whip up a batch of these super crispy egg rolls.
  • Cilantro Lime Rice would be a nice update to plain steamed rice and would soak up all that delicious sauce wonderfully.

Can I make Butter Chicken in Advance?

Yes!!! In fact, this is just as good if not better the next day. Just make from start to finish, cool completely and store the chicken and sauce in one container and the rice in another container. Re-heat over a low heat until the chicken is up to temperature.

(Make sure there isn't a lot of excess marinade on the chicken.) Sear for 3-4 minutes until brown and crusty, flip over and do the same on the other side. The chicken should release easily from the pan when it's ready to turn. If needed, sear chicken in batches, you don't want to overcrowd the pan.
