Chicken Tandoori With Passionfruit and Apricot Chutney
Here is another recipe made for the swap I am in this month it was very easy to make and a very different take on tandoori. I really liked the spice from the tandoori followed by the sweetness of the apricot and chutney and lastly the tang of passion fruit. I served mine over saffron, spiced scented rice and it was delicious. I put things like cardamon, cumin, garam masala, tumeric, saffron and then added chicken stock, instead of just cooking in plain water, all the floavour impregnates the rice and the end result is delicious and pairs well with this dish..
