Chicken tikka masala is probably the most popular Indian dish in the Western countries. For me it is definitely not surprising that perfectly grilled chicken cubes slathered with a rich and delicious sauce of almonds and tomatoes are well-loved and in demand. The tomatoes make the curry mild for those who dont have a fiery palate and the almonds lend their rich nutty flavor to make it all the more irresistible. I have always loved the tandoori dishes be it naan or tikkas or tikka masalas. So it was taken that when we grill the tikkas, I would make Chicken tikka masala with it. The recipe I used was perfect, with the spices and the tomato gravy balanced well to make a decadent rich curry. I have given the Chicken Tikka recipe for the marinade and grilling instructions in a previous post. We enjoyed it very well with hot naan.Hope you all would enjoy this delicious chicken tikka masala. Have a great day!! Chicken tikka masala Ingredients Oil 1 tbsp Onion 1, finely chopp
