Take butter or oil in a pan, add chicken pieces one by one, cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on full flame, then reduce the flame, let it cook for 5 to 7 minutes, after that remove the lid and turn the chicken and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Cook from the other side for a minute and keep the gas on low.

Lighten the gas as per requirement and let the chicken cook well from both the sides. To give it tandoori flavour, burn a coal on the gas. Make a steel bowl or a foil paper bowl in the middle of the chicken and place the coal in it. Keep it inside and add a few drops of oil and close the lid for 5 to 7 minutes. Take out the coal and serve with chutney.
