Oven-Baked Tandoori Chicken Thighs
These spicy, flavorful chicken thighs are marinated in a robust blend of Indian spices and yogurt, then baked in the oven for a smoky, tender result that rivals traditional tandoori.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 8 pieces chicken thighs
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 Tbsp ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp garlic, grated
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 3 tsp chili powder
- 3 tsp garam masala
- 1.5 tsp ground cumin
- 1.5 tsp ground coriander
- 1.5 tsp turmeric powder
- 2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Whisk together everything other than chicken to make the marinade.
- Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
- Add the chicken to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with foil topped with a wire rack.
- Remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and place on the prepared rack.
- Bake for 15 minutes, turning halfway through. Once the chicken is almost done, broil each side for a couple minutes. Total bake time should be 20-25 minutes
