TANDOORI CHICKEN

You can use any joint of chicken you prefer ...but make sure whatever joint you use has the skin intact .
You will need 500gm of chicken pieces
Before you do anything ....preheat your oven  to 220 deg C
Line a baking tray with cooking spray and  baking paper
Using your washed fingers , loosen the skin from one side of the joint .( I said loosen not remove ).
In a separate  bowl  combine the juice of 1 lemon , 350 gm of Greek yoghurt with 1 tsp of ground chilli , 1 tbs of minced garlic , minced ginger , 1 dsp of ground coriander , cardamom , cinnamon fennel , 1 tbs of turmeric, 2 tbs of the zest of 1  preserved lemon ......mix thoroughly .
Now using your fingers gently coat  the flesh of the chicken   under the skin ...
Season with sumac , cracked pepper and a little salt  .

Bake in your preheated oven for 35  minutes .
