Grease a flat baking tray. Set the marinated chicken on it. Bake the chicken in preheated oven till the chicken is tender.

Chefs Tip: Chicken tikka can also be cooked in a large shallow pan on stove top, with a little oil.
Serves 4 - 6
Preparation Time: 1 hour
Cooking Time: 30 minutes


To make the chickentikka masala, after I grilled the tikka botis on tawa I transfered them in a pan, added some water to make a little gravy. Added thinly sliced capsicum, green chillies, cilantro and fresh ginger then covered the pan for 2-3 mins and turned off the stove.
