Tandoori Chicken – Full
Bold, smoky, and irresistibly flavorful, Tandoori Chicken – Full is a classic North Indian dish that’s beloved for its vibrant spices, char-grilled aroma, and juicy, tender meat. Perfect for sharing, this full-portion feast showcases an entire chicken marinated and cooked to perfection in a traditional clay oven or tandoor.

A whole chicken is cleaned, scored, and generously marinated with a flavorful blend of yogurt, freshly ground spices, and tangy lemon juice. The marinade usually includes garlic, ginger, red chili powder, cumin, coriander, garam masala, and smoked paprika or Kashmiri chili for that iconic bright red hue — all mixed into creamy yogurt to tenderize the meat and infuse it with deep flavor.

After marinating for hours (or overnight for best results), the chicken is skewered and cooked in a blazing hot tandoor oven, where the intense heat sears the outside to a beautiful char while keeping the inside succulent and juicy. The result is tender, smoky meat with a slightly crispy skin and layers of bold, aromatic spice in every bite.

Garnished with fresh coriander, onion rings, and lemon wedges, Tandoori Chicken – Full is typically served sizzling hot with mint chutney, fresh salad, or naan on the side — perfect for sharing with family or friends at gatherings or festive meals.
