Ingredients
-
Tandoori Chicken
6 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup plain n/f greek yogurt
2 cloves crushed garlic
4 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 Tbsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1 1/2 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
salt
black pepper
Tzaziki sauce
1 cup n/f fat yogurt ( I like greek, but it's very thick. Reg is fine)
3 cloves of garlic, crushed to a paste
1/2 tsp salt
1 6 inch cucumber, seeded, peeled, and minced
2 tsp lemon juice
black pepper
Directions
Put chicken breasts and next 9 ingredients in a large zip-lock bag and massage for a couple of minutes to mix well. Refrigerate for 4 hours. Remove from marinade and grill on a hot grill until juices run clear, turning once. About 15 minutes.
Mix all the ingredients for the tzaziki sauce together in a bowl when you marinate the chicken. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
To serve, slice the cooked breast cross-wise into three pieces and spoon about 1/4 cup of the tzaziki across it. Good served with roasted cauliflower and a chopped greek salad w/ balsamic vinaigrette.

Something doesn't add up with your calorie summary. When you add up the ingredient breakdown per serving, you only get 153... NOT 183. Plus a reduction in protein and carbohydrates.
Tastes great, but the nutrition information is inaccurate. Maybe edit/save again and see if it recalculates? - 4/24/14

Loved this one. Very tasty - makes a great gyro substitution with some chopped lettuce, tomato, & rice (or do this with leftovers!) I also added a little parsley to the sauce and mixed it in the food processor to make the sauce less chunky. The only problem with the chicken - sticks to the grill! - 5/23/09

Umm, sounds good- but you do know that a tandoori means cooked in a clay pot in a special oven? - 9/10/08

Yeah, LOL, that's how I originally cooked it, if you have the time. Once I grilled it and that's how it got it's name. My family likes it better grilled. This is how I listed it for my own use. A lot of people don't have a tangine.
