Not a true tandoori chicken, which is made in a tandoor oven. This chicken still has all the spice, and is easily made in the home oven.

I love the smoky flavor that the tandoori paste gives to the chicken. It's a perfect dish for a summer cookout or a special occasion dinner.

I served this chicken with a side of raita, which is a yogurt-based sauce with cucumber, mint, and cilantro. It was a great way to cool down the spiciness of the chicken and add some freshness to the dish.

I didn't have any tandoori paste on hand, so I made my own using ground cumin, coriander, paprika, and cayenne pepper. It worked perfectly and tasted just as good as the store-bought paste.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, so I reduced the amount of cayenne pepper in the marinade. It was still plenty flavorful without being too spicy for my taste.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. I usually marinate the chicken overnight, but even if I only have a few hours, it still turns out great. The yogurt marinade really tenderizes the chicken and infuses it with flavor.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken is so flavorful and moist. I made a double batch and froze half of it for later. It reheats beautifully and is just as delicious as when it was first made.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the chicken turned out amazing! The tandoori paste gave the chicken a beautiful color and a wonderful smoky flavor. I served it with grilled vegetables and basmati rice, and it was a complete success.
