The tandori oven dishes are a good start as they dont come in sauces. For example chicken tikka tandori or chicken shaslik. Chicken shaslik are is marinated chicken pieces served with grilled pepper, onion and tomatos. This also gets served with a salad, but you will need to order the rice. Yum. Ax
