About Grilled tandoori chicken

Grilled Tandoori Chicken is a flavorful dish rooted in Indian cuisine, celebrated for its smoky aroma and vibrant spices. Typically marinated in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and a medley of spices such as turmeric, cumin, paprika, and garam masala, the chicken is then cooked in a traditional tandoor oven or grilled for a charred exterior. Rich in protein, this dish provides essential nutrients while being relatively low in carbohydrates. The yogurt marinade aids in tenderizing the meat and offers probiotics, promoting gut health. Grilling as a cooking method reduces excess fat compared to frying, making it a heart-healthier choice. However, its bold flavor comes from sodium-rich spices, which could contribute to high salt intake if consumed excessively. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or whole grains balances its nutritional value, ensuring it’s a wholesome option for most diets.
