Quarter Tandoori Chicken is a popular dish from Indian cuisine, known for its vibrant flavors and smoky aroma. This dish features a chicken quarter, traditionally marinated in a blend of yogurt, lemon juice, and a mix of bold spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder. It's then cooked in a tandoor, a clay oven, which imparts a signature charred and juicy finish. High in protein, the chicken is a healthy choice when eaten without the skin, as this reduces fat content. The marinade, rich in spices, provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the dish may be high in sodium if excessive salt or store-bought marinades are used. Pairing it with nutrient-rich sides like vegetables or whole grains can balance the meal. The absence of heavy sauces also makes Tandoori Chicken a lighter, flavorful option in Indian cuisine.
