I almost never think to cook Indian food for some reason, but we received tandoori chicken in a Blue Apron box once and it turned out to be really good (love how those boxes help us branch out on occasion)! So I decided to make my own version of this flavorful recipe, and it’s quick and easy enough for any busy weeknight.
