Chicken Tikka Masala
Publish on: 28 September, 2020 | In:Indian and Srilankan | Author by: Dylan Vickers-Fukakusa
This beloved Indian dish has been embraced all across the globe. The chicken pieces are tenderised with a quick marinade in yoghurt and spices. They are then grilled and finished in a warmly spiced, tangy curry. Serve with basmati rice or delicious naan to mop up the gravy.
Ingredients
Marinade
- 2 chicken thighs, largely diced
- 1 TBL cream
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp garam masala
- ¼ tsp Kashmiri chilli powder
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- ¼ lemon, juiced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2cm ginger, minced
Curry
- 1 TBL ghee or vegetable oil
- 1 red onion, diced
- ¼ tsp ground coriander
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp Kashmiri chilli powder
- 1 tomato, diced
- 100ml water
- 2 TBL yoghurt
- 1 tsp cream
- salt to taste
To Serve (Optional)
- Naan
- Basmati rice
- chopped coriander or mint
Method
- In a bowl, combine the chicken with the marinade ingredients and cover to marinate for 4 hours, or overnight in the fridge.
- Soak 4 bamboo skewers in water for at least 2 hours and prepare a grill or griddle pan so it is smoking hot.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto the soaked skewers.
- Grill the skewers to create char marks on all sides of the chicken (they don't need to be cooked all the way through) and set aside.
- For the curry, heat a heavy-based pot over medium-low heat and pour in the ghee or oil.
- When the oil is hot, add in the onion and sweat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Lower the heat and add in the ground spices. Stir for 1 minute until the fragrance is released, being careful not to let them burn.
- Mix the tomato into the pot and simmer for 1-2 minutes, adding a splash of water if sticking to the base.
- Pull the chicken pieces off the skewers and place into the pan along with 100ml water. Simmer over a low heat until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced.
- Stir in the yogurt and cream a little at a time, until it is fully incorporated. Simmer for a few more minutes or until a thick gravy has formed.
- Season with extra salt if needed and serve with optional herbs, rice and naan.
