Looking for an easy and flavorful way to kick off grilling season? Try our tandoori shrimp! This dish will fill your patio with the aroma of Indian spices. Not a shrimp fan? Substitute boneless, skinless chicken breasts or leg of lamb cubes with all fat removed. Either way, keep in mind that crushed pepper flakes are quite hot, so start with the lesser amount and taste the yogurt marinade before adding more.
