Easy Tandoori Chicken

Last summer I came across this awesome tandoori chicken recipe. Very easy. Mine is a modified version because I simply buy the spice and not make it my own. But this is the link of the recipe I followed. It is pretty tasty and the following day, if you have left overs, it will taste even better.

INGREDIENTS:
-8 chicken thighs.
-2 white yoghurts.
-4-5 tablespoons of masala tandoori mix.
-salt and pepper.

-4 onions.

-1 lime or lemon.

-1 tablespoon of oregano.

-10 ml of meat stock.

-400 grams of basmati rice.

STEPS:

1. Marinate the meat with salt and pepper and then with the yoghurt mix. For the mix , add the yoghurt to the masala tandoori mix in a bowl and add the chicken and coat really well. Let it sit at fridge for 1 hour at least. If you do it over night it will be even better.

2. Now place in dish and stick in oven for 40 minutes to 200 degrees, until the yoghurt has disappeared a little. Don't leave it for way too long or it will dry. When 20 minutes have passed turn chicken around so that the back browns as well.

3. In the meantime, get the glorious onions going. Very simple. Julianne onions and fry them in intense fire for about 10 minutes until they brown quite a bit, but do not burn them! not that high.

4. After this add oregano, the meat stock that you have previously dissolved in a tiny bit of water and the juice of the lime. it is an amazing flavour. Let it all cook together and soften the onions. 

5. Serve basmatic rice with onions and chicken. One trick to make the rice nicer is to add cardammon seeds to the water. It tastes sooooo much better.

And there it is, this recipe is very tasty, and the followind day the chicken taste even better and is super pinky.
