Background

Tandoori chicken is famous all over the world. This recipe is a simplified version, which is ideal for barbecues, parties, and laid-back suppers. Serve these easy tandoori chicken drumsticks with chutney and other spiced sauces with flatbread or poppadoms. For a dairy-free version use coconut yoghurt.

Ingredients

8 chicken drumsticks
100 ml yogurt
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
½ tsp paprika
1 garlic clove, minced
1-2 drops of red food dye (optional)

Instructions

Score the chicken several times with a sharp knife.
Mix the yogurt with the spices and garlic, add the dye, if used.
Place the chicken legs in a freezer bag, pour over the yogurt mixture and tie. Massage the marinade well into the chicken. Rest in the fridge for minimum 2 hours, overnight, if possible.
Take the chicken out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
Heat your BBQ or grill and cook the chicken until golden, turning them regularly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips

Instead of food dye you can add a couple of pinches of turmeric powder!
