Why This one

a few words from me

If you love Indian cuisine for its wonderful aromas - you will definitely like tandoori chicken. Its name comes from the traditional clay tandoor oven, where chicken pieces are baked on skewers at a very high temperature. I bake the meat in the oven, of course (although I also recommend grilling in the summer) and despite this, it does not lose its flavour. It is a low-calorie dish . I serve it with roast potatoes or basmati rice (in the dietary version I recommend brown rice). Tandoori chicken When I eat it, I feel a million spicy flavours and scents - that's why I love it. It's best to use the thighs .
