Chicken drumsticks made in tandoori style by baking in an oven is a very healthy way to cook chicken. Also it is a must-have if you are having a party at your place because you can marinate it ahead of time and then just put in the oven when the guest arrive and serve it nice and hot from the oven.
 
What you will need:
  • Chicken drumsticks - 4 pieces, skin removed
  • Ginger garlic paste - 2 tsp
  • Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
  • Chilli powder - 2 tsp
  • Yogurt - 1 tbsp
  • Lemon juice - 2 tsp
  • Coriander powder - 1 tsp
  • Cumin powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Olive oil - 2 tsp
  • Salt to taste

How to prepare
Hang the yogurt in a muslin cloth to remove all the water. Mix the yogurt with ginger garlic paste, chilli powder, tumeric powder, lemon juice, coriander and cumin powders and salt.
Leave it to marinate for atleast an hour. If leaving it for longer, put it in the refrigerator.
Preheat oven at 400F. Place the chicken drumsticks on the baking tray and pour some olive oil over the drumsticks. Bake for 15 minutes and then turn them over. Bake for another 15 minutes. Serve hot with lemon wedges.
