Wood-Fired Oven How To: Tandoori Chicken & Garlic Naan Cooked in a Pizza Oven

In this video, I share the recipe and the process I go through to to simulate a tandoor oven environment to make tandoori chicken and garlic naan in our wood-fired brick oven (pizza oven) that we built at home.

TANDOORI CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS
4 whole bone-in chicken legs (we used 4 Bone-in Chicken Thighs and 2 Boneless Chicken Breasts in the video)
1 tbsp Red Chili Powder
1 tbsp Garam Masala
1 tbsp Hungarian Paprika
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 tsp Ground Turmeric
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Coriander
3 tbsp of Vegetable Oil
1 cup Plain Whole-Milk Yogurt
Juice of 1 Lemon
4 Garlic Cloves (minced)
2 tbsp Fresh Ginger (we used 1 tsp ground ginger in the video)
1 tsp salt

RECIPE
- Heat all spices in oil for about 3 minutes, until fragrant
- Whisk spices into yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, and salt
- Cut deep slashes into the chicken, down to the bone
- Marinade chicken in mixture overnight
- Grill at very high temperature for 15-20 minutes (after baking the garlic naan)

GARLIC NAAN

INGREDIENTS
4 cups all-purpose flour
7 grams active dry yeast
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp baking powder
4 tbsp whole-milk yogurt
1 cup whole milk
6 garlic cloves (minced)
Fresh Cilantro (optional)
Ghee to top

RECIPE
- Combine dough ingredients and mix (not garlic, cilantro, or ghee)
- Knead until soft
- Cover and let rest for 90 minutes or until about double in size
- Divide into 12 equal size pieces (or 8 if you want larger naan)
- Pre-shape each piece into a tight ball
- Rest dough balls for about 15 minutes
- Head outside to the oven
- Flatten dough into very thin flat-breads using your hands or a rolling pin, stretching them very thin
- Add garlic and cilantro to tops of flat-breads and press toppings into the dough so they stick
- Place naan on metal peel with plain side facing out with one corner of the naan wrapped around to the back of the peel
- Spray plain side of naan with a spritz of water
- Flip naan out onto the hearth of the oven so the plain side sticks to the hearth. Do this confidently to ensure the naan stays flat against the hearth
- Cook in hot oven (pizza stage) directly on hearth for about 40 seconds
- Lift the naan up into the top of the dome for about 20 seconds to cook the top of it a little more
- Remove from oven and top with ghee immediately
