Quick and easy! I know, not really authentic tandoori, but a delicious and different way to have your chicken. It's not spicy, so feel free to add some heat or extra spices to the marinade. The sauce is like a cool, refreshing slaw with the apples in it and is fantastic with the chicken, so try to make sure you make that alongside.
