Tandoori Chicken and Rice Recipe

  • Tandoori Chicken Masala – 4 teaspoon
  • Chopped onion – ½ cup
  • Minced garlic – 1 large clove
  • Butter or olive oil – 1 tablespoon (30 grams)
  • Uncooked white rice – 1 ½ cups (270 grams)

  3. Scatter onion and garlic in a baking dish, put butter in the center, and bake it for 15 minutes (check at 12 minutes; if some bits are browning too much, mix them).
