Chicken tikka masala 🍛

Homemade chicken tikka masala with spicy pickled vegetables served with saffron rice and homemade naan bread. I used masala blends (Big Bowse brand) to marinate my chicken and add some to my sauce. It’s absolutely tasty and goes perfectly well with tasty curry and delicate flavour of saffron rice.

1/2 cup

plain yogurt (125 g)

2 tbsp

lemon juice

2 cloves

garlic, minced

1 tbsp

minced ginger

2 tsp

2 tbsp

Masala blend

3 tbsp

2 tsp

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Combine the chicken with the sauce ingredients, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.

* Step 2

Fry your chicken on a hot pan or griddled pan or bake in the oven to 500°F (260°C) for 15 min until slightly dark brown on the edges.

* Step 3

To make the sauce: Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat, then sauté the onions, ginger, and garlic until tender. Add Bigbowse masala spices and stir constantly for about 30 seconds, until the spices are fragrant. Stir in the tomato puree, tomato sauce, and water, then bring to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes. Pour some yogurt in.

* Step 4

Remove the chicken from the oven and add to the sauce mix, cooking for another 2-3 minutes. Add some more yogurt if prefer. Garnish with coriander and serve over saffron rice, pickled spicy vegetables and naan bread.
