I've had good experiences as an interviewer doing code review style interviews.

The candidate gets some code and a ticket description of what the code should do.

If he spots an issue, he can fix it right in the code or simply explain it.

I'd that testing the ability to read and understand code is both less stressful for the interviewee (no "judging every key stroke" stress) and more helpful for the interviewer.
