Instructions
Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix yogurt, tandoori masala, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, oil, and salt. Add the chicken strips, making sure they’re well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours or overnight.
Prepare the Grill: Preheat the grill or stovetop pan on high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan.
Grill the Chicken: Grill the marinated chicken strips for 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and slightly charred.
Assemble the Tacos: Warm the tortillas or taco shells. Place a few strips of grilled tandoori chicken on each, and top with diced onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and a drizzle of the yogurt-cilantro mixture.
Serve and Enjoy: Squeeze a little lime juice over the tacos and serve hot.
Notes
For a spicier kick, add some chopped green chilies or a dash of hot sauce. You can also add shredded lettuce or cheese for more variety.
