Ingredients
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh ginger (from a 3-inch piece) 1 cup coarsely chopped onion 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped garlic (from 5 to 6 cloves) 1/2 cup plain yogurt (not Greek), plus more for serving 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1 tablespoon tandoori spice mix, such as Frontier 3 tablespoons safflower oil 1 cup pureed canned tomatoes (from a 14 1/2-ounce can) Warmed naan or flour tortillas, cucumber spears, and fresh herbs, such as cilantro and mint, for serving
Directions
In a food processor, puree ginger, onion, and garlic to a paste. Add 1/4 cup of mixture to yogurt in a large bowl, reserving remainder. Season chicken with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon tandoori spice. Add to yogurt mixture; toss to combine. Let stand 30 minutes; meanwhile, preheat broiler.
Transfer chicken to a broiler pan and broil until browning in spots, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and brown on second side, 5 to 6 minutes more. Remove from broiler. (It won’t be cooked through.)
Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Swirl in oil. Add reserved onion paste; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 2 teaspoons tandoori spice; cook 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes, 1/2 cup water, and chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chicken is tender, about 25 minutes. Use 2 forks to shred chicken into bite-size pieces. Season with salt and pepper; serve with naan, cucumbers, herbs, and more yogurt.
