Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken (3 1/2 to 4 pounds), rinsed, patted dry, and quartered 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt 1/2 yellow onion, diced medium 1-inch piece peeled fresh ginger, sliced 2 garlic cloves, peeled 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 1 tablespoon vegetable oil Coarse salt and ground pepper

Directions

Place chicken in a gallon-size zip-top bag. In a blender, blend yogurt, onion, ginger, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, and oil until smooth; season with salt and pepper. Pour marinade over chicken and shake to coat. Refrigerate 4 hours (or up to 1 day).

Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Place a wire rack in a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Lift chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off. Season chicken with salt and pepper and place, skin side down, on rack. Roast until chicken is charred in spots, 35 minutes, flipping once. Reduce heat to 450 degrees and roast until chicken is cooked through, 10 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 3 stars       11/21/2014   This has potential. I made it a couple of days ago, and it was bland, but if another reviewer's (Lindsay's) suggestions are followed (adding things such as turmeric, ginger, cayenne, ginger, fennel, paprika) it would be tastier. I was wondering about the reference to the chutney as well. I went on another site and looked for chutney recipes - this needs it, as it needs the flavor.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/24/2014   I don't think this is tandoori with just the cumin/coriander mix. It should have turmeric, ginger, cayenne, ginger, fennel, paprika in the mix  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/24/2014   I second that question - where's the chutney??  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/24/2014   What's up with the pic of Martha instead of the chicken? And the cooks note says you will have more chutney than you need, where's the chutney recipe? And lastly, why an oven recipe in July instead of a grilled?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/24/2014   Pardon my "SNARK" -- BUT -- I know what Martha looks like at this supposedly-decrepit age -- I WANT TO SEE A PHOTO OF THE FINISHED TANDOORI-STYLE CHICKEN or whatever the recipe is for . . . (yes, and I think I dangled my participle too)

What’s up with the pic of Martha instead of the chicken? And the cooks note says you will have more chutney than you need, where’s the chutney recipe? And lastly, why an oven recipe in July instead of a grilled?
