What is "tandoori chicken"?

Tandoori chicken is a popular Indian dish that is known for its vibrant red color and bold flavors. The dish features chicken that has been marinated in a mixture of yogurt and spices, including cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala, and then cooked in a tandoor oven, which is a traditional clay oven that is commonly used in Indian cuisine. The high heat of the oven creates a charred and smoky flavor, while the yogurt helps to tenderize the chicken and keep it moist. Tandoori chicken is often served with a side of mint chutney or raita, and can be enjoyed as a main dish or as an appetizer.
