Steps

Start by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, mix the ketchup, olive oil, tandoori masala, salt and pepper.
Add the chicken to the marinade and let it sit for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350F/175C.
Grease a baking dish with olive oil and add the carrots, mushrooms and garlic.
Add the chicken to the baking dish and spread the marinade on top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked.
Serve hot.

Tips for Tandoori Style Chicken with Carrots and Mushrooms

The vegetables should be tender with lightly browned edges, while the chicken should look opaque throughout and feel juicy rather than dry.
Use a dish that holds the chicken and vegetables in a fairly even layer; crowding can make the vegetables soften without browning.
The stated 45-minute total does not include the minimum 1-hour marinade, so allow extra time or marinate the chicken ahead in the refrigerator.
