<< cumin, coriander, red hot pepper flakes and mustard seeds.>>

Risa,

Try toasting these in a skillet prior to grinding!  Also chicken should be 
skinless!  The thighs are great as well!.

Another good touch for flavor is to finish on the grill/barbeque.  Crazy but 
gives it a closer tandoori oven taste.  A real tandoori oven seals in the 
juices and gives a heavenly flavor.  The best is Tandoori Pomfret----like at 
the Oboroi in Delhi!  Tandoori is traditionally served with lightly grilled 
sliced onions and lemon wedges.  Geez I miss India, it's been 1 1/2 years 
since I was there.
