Main Description.

Cooked in Air Fryer, Absolutely no Oil….

Very simple recipe

One of India’s Gem Recipe is Chicken Tandoori,

It is a dish prepared by roasting chicken marinated in yogurt and spices in a tandoor, a cylindrical clay oven.
The dish originated from the Indian subcontinent and is popular in many other parts of the world.

Since it is not practical to have a cylindrical oven at home, you can pan fry or Air fry it.

This is the first recipe that actually got me interested in cooking, this is my personal favourite.

Ingredients

    Add salt to taste

    1.5 Tablespoon Garlic Paste

  • Make incision on the chicken with the knife and Make sure the marination goes inside the cuts.
