I love DIY but Mr. DIY’s preferred hobby is cooking. I don’t mind cooking. Eh. It’s not my favorite thing to do but it’s his passion. Nearly every evening, he unwinds after a stressful day by cooking a delicious dinner for two. Who am I to argue? So, every once in a while, I’ll be sharing Russ’ recipes in a Dinner at DIYShow Off series. This week’s dinner recipes include turmeric rice and tandoori chicken:

- Tandoori Chicken

He often asks me what I’d like for dinner. This is usually my #1 response. I don’t eat much but when this is being served, I manage two helpings. It’s one of my top favorite dinners. Let us know if you try it!
What’s your favorite homemade dinner?
Thank you and your hubby for the recipe. I have made both before, but I am going to be using his recipe for both from now on.
I am reminding myself to make a trip to my Asian store with hopes of finding some spices I have had trouble finding. And if I do, the McCormick’s or the Spice Island brands are outrageously expensive and not that good to me.
Anyway, thank you ever so much for the recipe. I will be keeping both to make as soon as I replenish my empty spices needed.
You are so lucky to have a hubby who unwinds by cooking! More decorating time for you right? I can’t wait to try his recipe. Thanks so much for sharing. Blessings, Patti@OldThingsNew
That looks so good!
Tandoori Chicken is DIVINE! How blessed you are to have a husband that cooks. Mine does the dishes, and that’s just about as good.
Yumms!! I had an Indian boyfriend and he used to take me to Indian resturants in U.K and amazingly, the food tasted great!!
I can recall I have eaten something similar with him. You just brought the nostalgia back 😉

Ooh! This sounds Really good. I’m not much of a cook; I find the hardest part is just coming up with what to make.
But tonight for dinner I’m seriously going to give this a whirl. The black & white sesame seeds plus fresh cilantro in the rice totally caught my eye. And I think I’ll try to adapt the Tandoori for chicken breasts vs. thighs. Wish my luck.
I’ll let you know how it goes. 😉
Cheers!
Looks incredible! Pinning!
Oh, I wish my hubby could cook something as delicious as this, he has a hard time boiling water 😀 I need to try both recipes!
Pinned it! Can’t wait to try it!
This sounded so good I shared it on Friday Finds!
