Perfected the taste with our spice blend ‘tandoori masala’, the chicken is marinated in yoghurt and spices, then grilled to perfection, resulting in juicy, flavourful chicken thighs. Ideal for a family meal or a weekend barbecue, this dish is sure to be a hit!
Prepare the marinade: In a large bowl, mix the plain yoghurt, tandoori masala blend, lemon juice, vegetable oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and salt. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined.
Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavours to fully penetrate the meat.
Preheat the grill: Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat (around 200°C). If you’re using an oven, preheat to 220°C (200°C fan).
Cook the chicken: Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking tray lined with foil or directly on the grill. Cook for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice charred appearance. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 75°C.
Serve: Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve with lemon wedges. This dish pairs well with naan, rice, or a fresh salad.
