Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    First, cook the chicken until about 40% done.

  2. 2

    Mix all the dry spices, yogurt, and ginger-garlic-green chili paste. Marinate the chicken with this mixture. Place a small bowl with hot charcoal in the center of the chicken, pour 1 teaspoon ghee over the charcoal, and immediately cover with a lid. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours to infuse the smoky flavor.

  3. 3

    After 2 to 3 hours, cook the chicken on a nonstick skillet or pan with ghee or oil until fully cooked (about 60% more). For extra tandoori flavor, use a skewer or tongs to hold the chicken over a high gas flame, brushing lightly with butter and turning to char slightly. Be careful not to burn.

  4. 4

    Once cooked, sprinkle with lemon juice and chaat masala, garnish with cilantro, and serve with sliced onions and green chutney.
