About Our Tandoori Chicken

Our Tandoori Chicken is prepared using time-honored techniques that date back centuries. We start with fresh, high-quality chicken that's marinated overnight in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and our proprietary blend of tandoori spices including paprika, cumin, coriander, and garam masala.

The marinated chicken is then cooked in our authentic clay tandoor, which reaches temperatures over 900°F. This intense heat sears the outside while keeping the inside incredibly moist and tender, creating that characteristic smoky flavor and vibrant red color that tandoori chicken is famous for.

The Art of Tandoor Cooking

At Hot Million, our tandoor is the heart of our kitchen. This traditional clay oven has been used in Indian cooking for thousands of years. The unique cooking environment creates dishes that simply cannot be replicated in conventional ovens – the high heat, the clay walls, and the charcoal all contribute to the distinctive tandoori flavor.
