First, take the chicken pieces and cut the slash into chickens.
Sprinkle some salt with 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder.
Add ginger + garlic + green chili paste and mix well.
Now cover the chicken mixture for at least 4 hours to marinate. This is best if you marinate 24 hours. But if you have a hurry, 2 hours is also good.
Prepare the Simple Tandoor Masala
Just heat a frying pan and add all the ingredients I mentioned on the ingredients list.
Fry a little and grind them.
Do the 2nd Chicken Marination
Takeout the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and let it come at room temperature.
In a bowl, add 2 tbsp of mustard powder. [Kacchi Ghani mustard oil is recommended]
Add 1 tbsp of Kashmiri Red chili powder.
Also, you can use regular red chili powder, but I don't recommend using regular red chili powder because it has a lot of health disadvantages. [So, it's optional.]
Add 2 tbsp Tandoori masala.
Add 1/3 tbsp Kasoori methi powder along with 2 tbsp of hung curd and whisk well.
Thereafter add 2 tbsp of gram flour. You can also add salt as per taste.
Add lemon juice and mix well.
Now add the marination mixture to the chicken and mix well to be sure that every chicken is nicely coated.
Again rest it for a minimum of 30 minutes. But I recommend at least 2 hours.
Baking of Tandoori Chicken
We have to preheat the oven at 200°C for 10 minutes.
In this meantime, we have to arrange all the chicken pieces on the grill. so, grease the grill and arrange the chickens.
After the preheating is done, open the door and place the grill on the top placement of the oven.
Set the oven at 170°C and that mode will be "Grill". The timer will set at 30 minutes.
After 15 minutes, turn the sides of chicken for better results.
When the baking is done, serve it hot with green chutney and onion slices. I recommend sprinkling some chaat masala on top at the time of serving.

Notes
∗ You can also add a little black pepper and chaat masala powder if you want. I added pepper powder at the time of the first marinade, so I didn't add at tandoori masala making time.∗ Once the whole spices are fried, immediately remove them from the pan and place them in another container. Do not leave it in the pan, otherwise, the spices will burn in the heat of the pan.
