Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, tandoori masala spice mix, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, Kashmiri Chilli Powder, vegetable oil, and salt. Mix well to create a smooth marinade.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 200 C/Gas Mark 6.
Remove the chicken strips from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Place onto an oven tray lined with Baking Paper.
Bake the chicken strips for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
