6 Reviews of Chicken Tikka

From: Cathy-O

On Nov 8, 2005

This was an easy and delicious recipe to prepare. I used thighs which i slashed with a knife so the spices would penetrate. Cooked for 17 to 20 minutes and then turned and cooked the other side for another 20. I added the juice of one lemon to the marinade for a bit of zing. Also added powdered tandoori color for that authentic look! Thanks for sharing!

    After years of going out of my way to buy Tandoori paste at a local import-export store, I'm thrilled to learn that I can create the same great flavor at home with a few simple ingredients that are always in my kitchen. I followed the recipe as stated, but did not baste the chicken with butter. This kept the dish lean and the meat didn't suffer from the lack of added fat. Had this for dinner and the next day for lunch. The later skewers were far more tender, arguing for letting the meat marinade overnight. Next time, I think I'l make a double batch of the yogurt mixture for the same amount of chicken. In that way the meat is thoroughly coated. This would work will with shrimp.

    This was a superb recipe. I did use one teaspoon of the chili powder and let the chicken marinate overnight. The chicken was very moist and tender and the flavor was wonderful with a nice kick from the hot chili powder. I too chose not to baste the chicken with butter with good results. Thank you Pets"R"us for sharing the recipe.

    Moist & flavourful! I was light on the chili but heavy on the ginger, marinated the meat overnight, then threaded on wooden skewers that I had soaked in water for an hour. My husband then grilled them to perfection! My Carrot Cucumber Riata (88058), plain steamed rice & grilled mixed veggies completed the meal. Thanx Pets!

    Made for "I Recommend Recipe" We didn't really care for this even though the others thought it was great - just our personal tastes.

    These were amazing!!! I cooked them on the grill like suggested and they were so tasty. My 5 year old and 3 year old devoured them. My 5 year old even told his dad he couldn't take the leftovers to work cuz he wants them for lunch tomorrow! Thanks!
