Tandoori Grilled Chicken

Make Serves 4.
Cooking time: 12-16 minutes
The barbecue is a reasonable approximation of the woodfired
clay ovens – or Tandoors – originally used to cook
this dish, and from which it derives its name.

Ingredients:

4 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
½ pint / 300 ml natural yoghurt
4 tablespoons garam masala
2 teaspoons paprika

METHOD:

In a bowl mix the paprika and garam masala into the
yoghurt. Fill a small cup with some of the mixture and set
aside. Pour the remaining mixture over the chicken breasts,
arranged in a shallow dish. Refrigerate overnight, or for
at least 2 hours before cooking. To cook, grill the chicken
over hot coals for 6-8 minutes on each side, basting well
throughout the cooking time with the reserved sauce. Serve
in briefly barbecued pitta breads, and with a crisp green
salad.
