A flavorful and aromatic chicken dish marinated in a blend of spices and yogurt, perfect for a hearty meal.
Combine the yogurt, ginger, garlic, tandoori paste, cumin, coriander, garam masala, salt, chili powder, and turmeric in a mixing bowl.
Use a whisk to ensure the marinade is smooth and well-blended.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated.
Massage the marinade into the chicken for better flavor absorption.
Cover the bowl with cling wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the chicken inside.
Place the marinated chicken on a baking tray and bake for 25 minutes.
Turn the chicken halfway through cooking for even browning.
Serve the chicken hot with steamed rice and a side of salad.
Garnish with fresh cilantro for added flavor and presentation.
