Ingredients

  • 1300 gram Tandoori split Chicken

  • 0.5 cup Natural yoghurt and chopped fresh mint to serve-(optional)

Directions

  • You can find these in your fresh chicken section of the supermarket. They will be in a vacuum sealed bag with the marinate already on doing its job.
  • Pre heat oven to 190 degrees.
  • Place chicken in baking tray and bake for 60 minutes. (Line a baking dish, much easier to clean baking dish).
  • Check the chicken after 1 hour with meat thermometer or spike a knife into the thickest part of meat & see that liquid is running clear and meat is nice and white.
  • If meat is white and liquid is clear turn oven off. Bast chicken with juices in baking dish and return chicken to oven to rest meat for a further 10 minutes.
  • This is when you can prepare a quick garden salad to serve with your chicken.
  • Resting your meat ensures the meat is thoroughly cooked and gives the chicken a very juicy and tender meat.
  • Carving is very easy just cut through the chicken with a sharp knife & lift out with tongs onto plate.
  • Serve with a garden salad and mint yoghurt.
  • Recipe Hints and Tips:
  • Tandoori Split Chicken makes great topping for pizza if you have any meat leftover!
  • Keep leftover meat refrigerated for 2 days in an airtight container.
