MashaAllah looks so tasty! Just wondering what the broil setting is? Is that like grilling?
InshaAllah will try and let you know how it turns out!
Thanks you, Nisa!
Yes, broiling is just like grilling. I’ve read somewhere that broiling (US) = grilling (UK), which should not be confused with grilling (US) = barbequing (UK), hehe. Anyway, in broiler setting, you place the oven rack on the topmost shelf of your oven. Turn the heat on the top portion only, keep the oven door ajar, and keep an eye on your food. Foods can easily burn and even catch fire.
Yes, please let me know how it turns out for you. If you learn something during the cooking process to enhance the recipe, please let me know too 🙂
looks really gud and its so much healthier than fried chicken! I think its high time i use the tandoori shaan masala that i have in the fridge 😉
i have this horrible habit of grabbing a box or 2 of shaan masalas whenever i’m doing grocery lolz
Oh yes, a whole lot healthier that fried chicken. I just used a few drops of sunflower oil to coat the aluminum foil, that’s all 🙂
And yes, it has also become my habit to grab a box of Shan masala every time we do our groceries.
Blog hopped my way … during my student days, I used to have tandoori almost every week! *no recollection on the variations* Thanks for sharing the recipe. It’d be swell if I can actually make it. 🙂
Tandoori every week! Then you must learn how to bake one to perfection, hehe.
Hehe I would love to try some, but I don’t think I would be able to find some of the stuff needed to make it.
And yeah I’m sure the terms we use here in the US are quite different from what everyone else uses. Oh and here when we use broiler we don’t keep the door open, most of our stoves here have their own broiler with its own slot on the bottom too. Mine does anyway because it is a gas stove.
I’ve read about an Indian restaurant called the Raj Mahal, on West 12th Street just east of Peninsula Drive. Is that far from where you live? Perhaps you can have your first tandoori chicken there and then ask the staff where to purchase the necessary ingredients 🙂
Mine is an electric oven and I’m supposed to keep the oven door half open per the manual instructions. Perhaps that’s the difference in the broiler settings between an electric and gas oven.
Man of good taste – after all, he married YOU – you should remind him of that too. 😛
Actually, when we both decided to look up for the meanings of our names, we discovered that Masood means happy, successful, and most importantly, lucky. So I keep telling him that I’m his wife and that’s why he’s lucky 😀
“And yes, it has also become my habit to grab a box of Shan masala every time we do our groceries.”
It’s the pictures on the box that make you want to buy it so bad. I thing it’s their marketing strategy, and I fall for it every time too 🙁
Oh yes, the pictures of perfectly garnished food is what makes us grab the box. They’re not bad, however; food turns out great. The only thing is that boxed masaley makes us lazy/not want to learn how to cook food from scratch.
Oh I did not even know we had an Indian place here in Erie! Masha allah, guess my husband and I will have to try that out some time! I knew we had some good Mexican places and a really great Japanese place, but this is so cool. Erie’s more diverse then I thought. 🙂
Do post more often about Erie; I love to learn about places! And please let us know about your experience with the Indian cuisine 🙂
Ohh, this reminded me of the yummy Tandoori Murgh, and am looking forward to have this delicious dish again.
Sounds divine! Gotta give it a try soon!
Thanks sis for sharing the recipe.. you made my mouth water! :p
Oh btw.. do you have it with rice? or chapati? or both! hehe
