Authentic Whole Tandoori Chicken Recipe – Oven or Grill Method

This is great! used a whole chicken and will make this again with boneless skinless chicken breasts. We lost most of the wonderful flavor of the marinade, because we didn't eat the skin. used a pretty big roasting chicken and had no juices for basting until the foil was removed for the last hour of baking. I left it in longer than the recommended time and the top browned nicely after basting twice. It was wonderfully moist.
