Tangdi Kebab / Grilled Leg Quarters

I call it my backyard delicacy as I give it some Caribbean touch.


This is something which is always relished because of its balanced flavors and charred crust. I have been a big tandoori fan all my life and

owning a grill of my own is something I always wanted. Since the day I have owned one, this has been a household dish .

RECIPE :

Marinade-
1. Add 1/2 cup yoghurt, teaspoon each of cumin powder, Kashmiri chilli, Dry Mango , Papaya Paste(used as meat tenderizer) and Coriander powder , 2.5 teaspoon of Ginger Garlic Paste, little bit of lime and a bit of oil and mix together until the marinade is consistent with texture and color.
2. Add five leg quarters , mix them properly until the chicken is properly coated with the marinade.

3. Marinate the chicken for a minimum of 6 hrs for good taste . Any lesser would also work but you would find the difference in taste.

On the Grill -
1. Switch ON the Grill , you can also bake at 375 but I prefer the grill to get the top layer charred a bit which adds to the taste.
2. Spray Oil in the grill , I use the Kirkland Canola Spray.
3. Place the chicken in the grill and spray on a little oil on the chicken .
4. I also sprinkled a bit of chicken seasoning (kick’n chicken) from Weber and a little thyme on top of the chicken.
5. Keep turning the chicken and grill for 20 mins.
6. Serve hot with Mint or Cilantro chutney , onion blanched with lime and salt.
