Tandoori chicken originated from the Mughlai cuisine & is one of the most popular chicken appetizers that stole the hearts of many across the globe. This mouth-watering delicious chicken is well known as murgh tandoor or tandoori murgh. The term murgh meaning chicken and tandoor is a clay oven. Traditionally, tandoori chicken is cooked with a whole bird that has been infused with flavour through a distinct two-stage marinading process.

Steps to make Viet-Inspired Tandoori Chicken:
  1. Place all marinade ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir or whisk to combine thoroughly.
  2. Place the chicken in the marinade and mix gently but thoroughly to evenly season each piece. Cover the bowl & place it in the fridge to marinate for 6 to 24 hours, redistributing the chicken 2x during the marinating period to ensure even seasoning. Or you can put it all in a gallon capacity Ziploc bag, lay all the meat in a single layer, suction all the air out of it, and lay it on its side in the fridge. You can flip halfway through to ensure even seasoning.
  3. An hour before cooking, take the chicken out of the fridge and lay it in a single layer on either a sturdy sheet pan (not a cookie sheet) with a grill rack over it (my preferred method), or on a broiler pan with slats, skin side up, and let it come up to room temp. I mention this often, but bringing your protein up to room temp results in a better outer sear, which results in more internal juiciness.
  4. 20 minutes before cooking, preheat your oven to 450F. Once the oven's preheated, put the chicken on the center rack of the oven and roast for 45 to 55 minutes, depending on the size of your chicken pieces.
  5. That's it! Enjoy. :)
