Cheesy Tandoori Pasta Shells
Jumbo pasta shells stuffed with cheesy tandoori chicken drenched in a bechamel base and baked to perfection! Aha, cheesy, spicy deliciousness in one meal! I love to play with the flavors of two cuisines especially Indian and Italian! This pasta is one such fusion flavor from INDIA’S Tandoori chicken and cheesy
One of my well-known fusion recipes is butter chicken pasta! Many of you tried it and got amazing feedback for that! This recipe is a very easy one and so flavorful that you will fall in love with it!
A spicy and cheesy combination is the best treat for us Indians to satisfy our craving to have any special meal, right? Hope you all will love this one!
