Tandoori Chicken is one of India's most iconic dishes, originating from the Punjab region and named after the clay tandoor oven in which it is cooked. At Chef's Indian Kitchen, we honour this tradition using a real clay tandoor that reaches temperatures exceeding 400°C — producing the signature char and smoky aroma that no other cooking method can replicate.
Our chicken is marinated for a minimum of 12 hours in a blend of thick yogurt, fresh ginger-garlic paste, and a house spice mix that includes cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili, and garam masala. This deep marination ensures every bite is tender, juicy, and packed with flavour from the inside out. Served with fresh lemon wedges and mint chutney.
