Out of many things that my fitness journey taught me, prioritizing protein was one key learning!
That’s exactly why you see so many chicken recipes here in my space as being a meat eater, chicken is my go-to choice of protein!
So here I am again today with another chicken recipe which can ease out your stress of what to make for dinner on a hectic work day, that of course only if you are a chicken lover like us!
I would like to call these tandoori chicken thighs my own innovation as I have never seen these anywhere on the internet and it materialized in a purely organic way when I was planning for my high protein dinner options.
What are tandoori chicken thighs?
Chicken thighs are undoubtedly my most favorite portion of chicken, so I keep thinking of newer & innovative ways to make and devour this tender and succulent meaty portion of the bird.
And what could be better than a tandoori flavored chicken thigh! My tandoori chicken thighs are a simple spin-off of my most popular restaurant style tandoori chicken recipe.
Instead of using the typical cuts of a full chicken which is how a traditional tandoori chicken is made, I used boneless & skinless chicken thighs to make my weekday version of tandoori chicken!
Boneless & skinless fillets of chicken thighs cook quickly making them an ideal choice for busy day meals; on top of it tandoori flavors make them simply irresistible!
Plus, there are so many ways to serve them!
You can pair them with a side of a simple salad of fresh lettuce, cucumber & onion or you can sandwich them between sourdough slices with a creamy & spicy yogurt spread.
Simply put, this recipe of tandoori chicken thighs is a keeper and it is definitely gonna reappear on my dinner table frequently!
