About Our Chicken Tikka

Chicken Tikka is a classic Indian appetizer that showcases the art of marination and grilling. At Chef's Butter Chicken, we take this traditional dish to new heights with our authentic recipe. We start with tender chicken breast pieces that are marinated in a blend of yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and a carefully selected mix of Indian spices including garam masala, Kashmiri red chili powder, turmeric, cumin, and coriander.

What makes our Chicken Tikka special is our unique charcoal grilling process. After marinating for at least 4 hours to ensure maximum flavor penetration, the chicken is threaded onto skewers and grilled over charcoal until golden brown and perfectly cooked. This method imparts a distinctive smoky flavor that's impossible to achieve with other cooking methods. We serve our Chicken Tikka with fresh mint chutney and onion salad, making it the perfect starter for any Indian meal.
