Tandoori Chicken Tikka is a popular Indian dish made with marinated chicken pieces cooked in a tandoor or oven.

Ingredients

Fresh coriander (for garnish)
Lemon wedges (for garnish)
Bell peppers (1, sliced)
Onion (1, sliced)
Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
Salt (to taste)
Coriander powder (1/2 teaspoon)
Cumin powder (1/2 teaspoon)
Turmeric powder (1/2 teaspoon)
Red chili powder (1 teaspoon)
Tandoori masala (2 tablespoons)
Ginger (garlic paste - 2 tablespoons)
Lemon juice (2 tablespoons)
Yogurt (1/2 cup)
Chicken breast (500 grams, boneless and skinless)

Instructions

In a bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, red chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and salt to make the marinade.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, alternating with sliced onions and bell peppers.
Brush a baking sheet with vegetable oil and place the skewers on it.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with lemon wedges.
Enjoy the delicious Tandoori Chicken Tikka!
