Recipe Tips

If you don’t have leftover Tandoori Chicken, you can quickly prepare it by stir-frying 1 cup of chicken strips (any portion) in 1 tbl sp of oil or butter. Before cooking, wash the chicken and coat it with ½ tsp of salt, 1 tsp of Tandoori powder or paste, ¼ tsp of black pepper, ¼ tsp of cumin powder, and ¼ tsp of coriander powder. Cook until the chicken is tender and crispy, then shred it with a fork.
