For this chicken tikka masala recipe, the yogurt helps tenderize the chicken; the garlic, ginger, and spices in the marinade infuse it with lots of flavor. If there's one dish guaranteed to be on every Indian restaurant menu, it's chicken tikka masala, which is composed of grilled chunks of chicken enveloped in a creamy spiced tomato sauce. And the chicken is perfectly tender with the creamiest, most flavor-packed sauce ever! Slice the chicken into bite-sized chunks.

Steps to make Chicken Tikka Masala:
  1. First the marinade. In a bowl, mix the marinade ingredients. Add the chicken pieces to the marinate and after it has been mixed well, let it marinate for an hour or over night. I let mine sit overnight and cooked it the next morning
  2. Whenever you choose to make it, once you are ready, preheat the oven to 400F. Thread the marinated chicken onto wooden skewers. Make sure you have soaked the wooden skewers in water before using it. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and roast it in the oven for a max of 20mins. Once done, remove from heat and set aside, and if there is any drippings on the sheet, save that too
  3. While the chicken was cooking, I started on the sauce. In a pan, add the fennel seeds, ginger and garlic pastes and the onion to some heated oil. As the onions start to soften, add the coriander and garam masala powders. Mix to combine well
  4. Next add the can of diced tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and allow it to simmer for about 15mins. Stir occasionally
  5. Finally add the chicken pieces along with the drippings and the 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Mix well to combine and allow it to simmer for 5more minutes. Season with salt again if needed
  6. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve it along with some warm naan and freshly cooked white rice

Combine the cubed chicken with the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, salt, cumin, garam masala, and paprika and stir until well-coated. Line a high-sided baking pan or roasting tray with parchment paper. Chicken tikka masala is a dish of marinated and broiled chunks of chicken in a creamy, spice-infused tomato sauce. Alongside the requisite basmati rice, buttered peas, and naan, it makes a fabulous family feast. This version is terrific for entertaining since it can be made entirely ahead of time — and it's also a great intro to Indian food for kids, as it's not too spicy.
