Barbecued Tandoori Chicken

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried chilli flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 2 tablespoons water
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast fillets
• Oil for brushing on grill hotplate

Preparation method

Prep: 25 mins | Cook: 15 mins

1.

Preheat barbecue to high.

2.

In a medium bowl, mix curry powder, chillies, salt, ginger, paprika, cinnamon and turmeric with water to form a smooth paste. Rub paste into chicken breasts, and place them on a plate. Cover, and allow to marinate for 20 minutes.

3.

Brush cooking grill hotplate with oil. Place chicken on the barbecue, and cook 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear when pierced with a skewer.

Tip:

If you're looking for a dairy-free tandoori recipe, this is perfect. But for a more authentic tandoori, try substituting the marinade's water with yoghurt.
