Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Using a sharp knife, make 2-3 deep slits into each chicken drumstick, being careful not to cut through to the bone.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: The slits help the marinade penetrate deeper into the chicken.
2
In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, grated ginger, minced garlic, lemon juice, garam masala, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and optional red food coloring.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Red food coloring is traditional for the iconic tandoori color, but it's purely cosmetic.
3
Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Use your hands to rub the marinade into the slits.
Aproximativ 2 min.
4
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Aproximativ 2 ore
Nota bucătarului: Longer marination times result in more tender and flavorful chicken.
5
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Aproximativ 10 min.
6
Lightly grease a baking sheet with vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper.
Aproximativ 1 min.
7
Arrange the marinated chicken drumsticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, discarding any excess marinade.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure there's some space between each piece for even cooking.
8
Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through, until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F).
Aproximativ 30 min.
Nota bucătarului: For extra char, you can briefly broil the chicken for the last few minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
9
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Aproximativ 5 min.
10
Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve hot.
Aproximativ 1 min.
