Hello, food lovers and friends greetings. Today I will show you how to grill a chicken very easily in a frying pan.
Ingredients we need:
Keeping the chicken in 1 piece. cut away the skin, tail part, and backbone.
Keep a little skin around the thighs to hold it whole.
Make cuts in the thick parts of meat around the thigh and breast.
make a marinade mixing together
1 lime or 1/2 lemon, juiced
2 tsp kashmiri chili powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
2 tsp salt.
1 tbsp oil.
Marinate with lemon/lime juice turmeric, oil and chili powder (can use paprika powder), and salt according to taste usually need 2 tsp salt for 1.3 kilos of chicken.
Rub on chicken deep in the cuts so the meat marinates properly.
Keep around 1/2 an hour aside.
Make a second marinade with yogurt, tandoori masala, and ginger-garlic paste.
2 tbsp ginger-garlic powder
2-3 tsp tandoori masala
1 cup turkish yogurt
Mix ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, and yogurt together.
Now, rub this marinade on the chicken thoroughly and keep aside for around 1/2 hour.
1 big tomato
1/2 paprika
2 onions
cut in chunks and sprinkle with 2 pinches of salt .
brush a frying pan with oil and heat on high temperature slowly/carefully slide the chicken into the pan and spread the onion paprika and tomato chunks over and around it. cook for around 5-6 minutes on high heat and lower the heat to medium. cook for 4-6 minutes more.
The chicken and tomato onion will start releasing juice. Now very carefully using two big flippers flip the chicken. cover and cook for around 15 minutes more on low heat.
Here is one more option without flipping the chicken we can put the frying pan (If it has a metal handle) direct in the oven on the grill setting for around 5-7 minutes depending on the oven. and the chicken will be grilled or tandoori.
Now the chicken is ready to serve.
Can serve with rice, chapati, and raita.
