Chicken Tikki Masala Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Combine all the marinade ingredients in a non-reactive dish.
  • Stir in the chicken strips until all are covered.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and then marinade for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator
  • When the marinading time is over, pull the strips out and thread them on bamboo skewers that have been soaked in water.
  • Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Grill the chicken on a barbeque, in a grill pan, or under a broiler. They will cook quickly and be very tender.
  • Remove from skewer and cut the strips into 1" pieces.
  • Prepare the tomato cream cream sauce by melting the butter in a pan.
  • Add the garlic and all the spices and herbs. Saute for a minute.
  • Add the tomato sauce. Whisk well to get all the good bits off the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the cream. Stir well.
  • Add the chicken and heat the chicken through.
  • Add the cilantro and serve.
  • Serve with basmati rice and naan.

    Looks like an excellent -- & easy! -- version of classic Indian take-out, be that in Britain or not :)
    I like the fact that you included your suggestion for the Palek red curry paste, especially since curry pastes (of any colour) vary so much.....
    Thanks :)
