I can eat tandoori chicken daily. Its one of my favorite thing to eat with green chutney and paratha. You can make it in oven or in steam. Its really good for people who are watching their weights. It has low calories because we are using very little oil. Just marinate chicken in few ingredients and then grill it or bake it. You can also make it in pot on slow heat and when its get ready give it coal smoke.
