It’s the end of the week and you fancy some spicy food. What better than this fabulous chicken tandoori recipe? Even better, the herbs and spices in this dish lend it anti-inflammatory properties. The perfect recipe for a post-RejuvaDetox+ lifestyle plan.
For vegetarians, tofu would work just as well. Serve with brown basmati rice and steamed vegetables or a big green salad.
