Carlota McDougall (McVladie)Delicious and Easy Chicken Tikka Masala!
The first time I tried Chicken Tikka Masala was at a friend's house. Her mother had graciously invited me over for lunch. From the very first bite of her delicious dish I was in love. It was creamy and spicy and filled with chunks of marinated chicken. She showed me her spice pantry... Which could rival any spice merchant. She scooped kashmiri pepper powder out of a big container and into a large jar as well as another jar full of her own special garam masala blend and shared her recipe. I thanked her and told her I would try to make it as good as hers... She laughed and said you can try but no one makes it as good as I do.
