How to Make Easy Tandoori Marinade
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric, paprika, chili powder, and salt until thoroughly combined.
- Add the chicken pieces or pre-made skewers to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
- Preheat your grill, grill pan, or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Thread chicken onto skewers (if not already done) and grill for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Alternatively, cook in the skillet for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until cooked through.
- Serve immediately and garnish with fresh cilantro (optional).
