Prepare tandoori chicken. Heat butter in wide saut� pan or large frying pan. When melted, add combined liquid ingredients.

Tandoori Chicken

Combine 2 Tbsp tandoori masala with 2 Tbsp plain yogurt, 2 Tbsp lemon juice & 2 Tbsp veg oil. Marinate 1 kg skinless chicken parts (or use somewhat less boneless chicken) for 6-8 hrs minimum. Make a few gashes into the flesh of the chicken and rub the marinade into these for maximum infused flavour. Grill over HOT coals until done OR bake on a rack in 450F oven for about 30 min.

Tandoori Masala
1 tsp Garlic (Lasun) Powder
1 tsp ground Ginger (Adrak)
1 tsp Cloves (Lavang) Powder
1/2 tsp grated Nutmeg (Jaiphal)
1 tsp Mace Powder (Javitri)
11/2 tblsp Cumin (Jeera) Powder
2 tblsp ground Corriander (Dhania)
1 tsp Fenugreek (Methi) Powder
1 tsp ground Cinnamon (Tuj/Dalchini)
1 tsp fresh ground Black Pepper (Kalimirchi)
1 tsp ground brown Cardamom (Elaichi) Seeds

That sounds absolutely delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
