  • 3 Tbsp tandoori spice mix

Directions:

Remove all visible fat from chicken.

Remove chicken from marinade, scraping off as much sauce as possible. Place chicken under grill; grill on high for 2 minutes each side. Reduce heat and cook for a further 5 minutes on each side. Baste with marinade whilst chicken is cooking.
