Chicken Tandoori is a highly popular Indian dish consisting of roasted chicken, yogurt, and spices.
The chicken is marinated in yogurt and seasoned with tandoori masala. It is moderately hot, but the heat is reduced in most Western nations. Cayenne pepper, red chili powder or kashmiri red chilli powder is used to give it a fiery red hue. A higher amount of Turmeric produces an orange colour. In some modern versions, both red and yellow food colourings are used. It is traditionally cooked at high temperatures in a tandoor (clay oven), but can also be prepared on a traditional grill.
