Tandoori Chicken #1 Preparation
Date: Sat, 05 Jan 1980 17:52:39 -0800 From: Jo & Pete <jopete@odyssee.net> Pat chicken dry inside and out. Cut 2 one inch slits about 1/2 inch deep in both legs, thighs and breasts of chicken. Place chicken in a casserole. Mix lemon juice and salt and rub over chicken, pressing the mixture into the slits. Allow to sit for about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt, garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne and turmeric. Spread evenly over the chicken. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. (Chicken may be trussed with string if a prettier shape is important). Brush chicken with one or two tablespoons of melted butter. Place in a 400”F. oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350”F. and continue cooking, basting occasionally with pan juices, for 1 to 1-1/4 hrs or until chicken tests done. (To test for doneness, pierce the thigh with the point of a small knife. The juice should run a pale yellow with no sign of pink.) If meat is still pink, continue cooking for an extra 5 to 10 minutes. SERVES 4. MEAL-MASTER RECIPES LIST SERVER MM-RECIPES DIGEST V3 #64 From the MealMaster recipe list.
