Been a while ... tandoori chicken and naan

Posts: 12,318
Removed skin, made several gashes for marinade and faster cook, sprinkled little salt and sprayed with lemon juice (both sides), rested 15 min before applying marinade.
(edit: can sprinkle some chili powder at this stage if you want more heat)
Marinade - commercial tandoori masala (low salt but heavy colour!), chili powder, garlic ginger paste, mayo, yogurt. Applied paste piece by piece, pushing marinade into gashes before coating completely.
(edit: others marinade 4 hours max so it won't get mushy, for whatever reason I always marinade overnight and they are fine, still puzzled)
Direct 400 till IT 170F...
Home made naan ... my go to method is still direct with one flip after chicken is done...

Thanks all for the kind words. If anyone is serious about tandoori, I highly recommend this video. I learned a lot from this guy, especially on how to gash and slash the chicken! I cheated by using commercial tandoori spice instead of from scratch though
edit: cook in your egg of course!
