150 mL low-fat white yogurt
10 g garlic and ginger paste

  4. Mix everything with the Sterilgarda low-fat white yogurt and add the juice of half a lemon.
  5. Finally add the curry and season with salt if necessary, then mix everything well and pour the marinade obtained over the chicken, which must be completely covered by it.
  6. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave in the refrigerator to marinate for 24 hours.
  7. After this time, take the chicken and arrange the pieces on a baking tray, covered with baking paper, well spaced apart.
  8. Bake in a preheated static oven at 230° for 40 minutes (if fan oven 200° for 35 minutes).
  9. Remove the tandoori chicken, which will be nice and crispy on the outside, from the oven, remove from the pan and serve on a bed of salad or accompanied with pilaf rice.
