Tandoori Chicken is a chicken dish that originated in the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent.  [[Cayenne pepper]], [[red chili powder]], or other spices give it a red hue. A higher amount of [[turmeric]] produces a yellow-orange colour. In some modern versions, [[Tandoori red food colouring]] is often used. It is traditionally cooked at high temperatures in an earthen oven (tandoor), but can also be prepared on a traditional grill or a very hot oven. This dish is also popular among Hindi, Bengali, and Urdu speaking Indian states like West Bengal & Andra Pradesh. In Pakistan it is eaten with [[naan breads]] and, in Bangladesh, with [[rice]].
