FAQ’S – Non-Vegetarian Tandoori Recipes
Can I make tandoori chicken without a clay oven?
Yes, you can grill it, use a gas oven, or even an air fryer. But for authentic char and smokiness, a tandoor is ideal.
What cuts of meat work best for tandoori dishes?
Bone-in chicken thighs, drumsticks, and lamb chunks are ideal for rich flavor and juicy texture.
How long should I marinate meat for tandoori recipes?
At least 6–8 hours. For best results, marinate overnight to let the spices deeply infuse the meat.
Is it necessary to use yogurt in the marinade?
Yes, yogurt helps tenderize the meat and adds a rich, creamy texture to the final dish.
Can I freeze marinated meat for later use?
Absolutely! You can freeze marinated meat for up to 2–3 weeks. Just thaw in the fridge before cooking.
What kind of skewers are best for tandoori kebabs?
Use stainless steel or long bamboo skewers. Make sure to soak bamboo skewers before using.
How do I prevent meat from drying out in the tandoor?
Don’t overcook it. Keep an eye on it and baste occasionally with oil or butter to lock in moisture.
What are some must-try non-veg recipes?
Try chicken tikka, lamb seekh kebabs, tandoori prawns, and malai chicken — all smoky and flavorful!
