I have been working on a good recipe for tandoori chicken since like 6 months I finally realised all the concepts when I had a chat with a tandoor wala he told me how hot the tandoor gets it like reaches 400C and even then they cover it and apply pressure on the chicken to cook… the amazing part was when I asked few of the tandoor walas that why do you hang the chicken and the only answer I got was so that we can give quick service but I believe that is not the only case the further logical reason is to reseal the juices present in the chicken and definitely the cook in dry heat so they do not have to face the challenges of steam cooking anyways I hope you liked the recipe J
