The BEST Chicken Tikka Masala
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- Chicken Tikka Masala is one of my favourite dishes, and this recipe is the bomb! Everything is made in the same pan, so the flavour of the meat transfers into the curry making for a meaty, rich, and creamy sauce that is to die for. This is one of those recipes that I guarantee you'll make again and again for years to come :)
I hope you enjoy this video :)

RECIPE FOR GARAM MASALA
• How to Make Garam Masala
INGREDIENTS
Chicken Marinade
1 cup, Plain Yogurt
Juice of ½ Lemon
3 cloves of Garlic, finely grated
1 tbsp, Ginger, finely grated
2 tsp, Garam Masala
½ tsp, Salt
6, Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs, cut into bite size pieces
In a bowl, combine all ingredients and marinate for 1 hour.
For the Sauce
2 tbsp, Vegetable/Canola Oil
2 tbsp, Butter
2 medium Onions finely diced
3 cloves of Garlic, finely grated
1 tbsp Ginger, finely grated
1/2 tsp, Turmeric Powder
1 tsp, Ground Coriander
1 tsp, Ground Cumin
1 tsp, Garam Masala
1 tsp, Ground Red Chili Powder
2 cups, Strained Tomato Sauce
1 cup, Heavy Cream
Salt to Taste
Fresh Coriander to garnish
METHOD
In a large pot, heat oil on Medium-High. When hot, add chicken pieces, ensuring not to crowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes a side, until browned. Set aside.
*The Chicken doesn’t have to be cooked through at this stage
In the same pan, add butter and Onions, and cook until soft and translucent. Add Ginger and Garlic, and sautee for 30-45 seconds. Then add Turmeric, Coriander Powder, Cumin, Garam Masala. Fry until fragrant (15-20 seconds).
Add Tomato Sauce, Ground Red Chili and season with salt to taste. Simmer for 15-20 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally until Tomato Sauce thickens, and takes on a deep reddish brown colour.
Add Chicken and Heavy Cream, and cook for an additional 10 minutes until mixture is bubbling, glossy, and thick.
Garnish with fresh Coriander and serve with hot Basmati Rice, and/or Naan/Rotis.

This was amazing, I'm 13 and when I made this my brother thought he would have to lie to me about it tasting good, but he has been asking me to cook again more than once. It was delicious, 10/10
Yesssss good for you!!
Thats Amazing that Your cooking whole recipes at 13! 🥰
I feel better cause I don't know if I'm a good cook hahah
@@britneyserrano8908 yes! I can barely get my 13 year old to boil spaghetti noodles lol. But, to each their own. Good on you kiddo!
@Creepy Karen yeah? lol
I underestimate this woman until i saw how strong her grip is squeezing that poor lemon
Hahahahahaha
Darshan Bhambhani lolz
Oh my god, can't believe I missed how fast she killed that lemon
That's a good one
HAHA ;)
I made this today and it was amazing! Better than some I’ve had at restaurants for sure. Thanks for the recipe and for laying it out clearly enough for someone who was cooking Indian food for the first time to follow. :)
Thank you for giving me the confidence to make my first Indian dish. We moved from a town where there were wonderful Indian restaurants on every corner to one where pizza is considered ethnic food, never mind Indian. So I went ahead and followed this recipe with some modifications because we had leftover chicken, so it was already cooked. And also, I went to the local supermarket for garam masala, and of course they didn't have it, so I made my own!! Pat me on the back! I'm already a good basmati rice maker, so bottom line, the dish is delicious. It's ALMOST as good as one of my favorite Indian take-outs back in my former hometown. (At least according to me.).
I made this for my dock mates stuck in our marina thanks to the Coronavirus...
Incredible! My first run at Indian food of any kind and everyone loved it and this will be my new comfort food after this nightmare is over. I'm going to make it again, I think and spread the love to those who missed it.
Thanks so much for the video.
thought I was the only one learning to cook Indian during the apocalypse. This will be my third dish hope it goes as good as the first two. butter chicken and Indian curry were awsome to cook.
@@chrisk90x last night was pumpkin swordfish and Bearnaise sauce tonight is Satay over fresh pasta with toasted sesame seeds thinly sliced cucumber and rustic bread
@@davidandersen1669 Welcome to the indian cuisine! You should try Mediterranean food as well! Stay safe
I make this often and it's the best recipe, restaurant quality, only thing I changed was I put chicken under broiler top rack and get a good sear because in pan yogurt burns and makes black burnt residue from yogurt burning in the pan. Comes out just as good, and I made her garam masala recipe too because I ran out of mine. Delicious recipe
@@miraj9005 I cook med food. It's to die for. I love Greek food!
Randomly found this video and decided to give it a try. It was a such a hit that my husband and kids are wondering why I didn't triple it. Thank you so much for sharing this with the rest of us! My family begged that I immediately add this to our family recipe book so we always have it on hand.
Autumn That warms my heart! I am so glad your entire family enjoyed it :D Thank you so much for your sweet comments xoxo
Autumn lol I tripled it just this weekend for my family with BIG appetites and to go boxes too 😀
so cute 🥰
Bot comment
I've made this recipe at least 4 times and marinating the chicken overnight makes it 10000x better. it's so delicious
I've made this for years and this is my first review, my apologies! This is an absolute great/easy recipe. If you want to impress yourself give it a try. So delicious 😋!!!! Thank you🙏
We need a Naan recipe to go with this Masala!
@Ses Pez no u dont
I throw it on a super hot cast iron skillet and it comes out great
you don’t have a nan?
@@oliverlloyd2303 ?
I have nan! Or is it I have none!!!???😂😅🤣😳😳
OMG! I just did for my family and It was a hit! It has so much flavor! The best, indeed!
Thank you for sharing this recipe!!!
I made this dish twice already following your directions and both times was highly appreciated! I love it and entered in my favourite of all times for my recipe book 😍 thanks so much!
I made this tonight for the first time. It was a hit. Everyone loved it. This will be my go-to recipe for Chicken Tikka Masala now! Thanks!
I've tried many homemade chicken tikka masala, this was the best. For others, don't skip cooking the tomato based sauce until it's almost like tomato paste before adding cream. Thanks for sharing.
Would it be ok to use tomato paste or do you have to use tomato sauce?
Wondering the same. Or maybe tomato puree is more correct?
@@scottytc so I made this today, using just tomato sauce. It came out well, but damn it took a while to reduce it to a pasty consistency. Next time I'm going to do half sauce/half paste. Also, I'll be prepping the chicken the night before. This recipe took me a lot longer than I thought it would.
The strained tomato sauce she is using is the -Mutti Tomato Passata Puree
@@Calizone26 oh great. I can get tomato passata easily. I was wondering what the tomato sauce was. I thought it was blended tins of tomatoes but it looked much redder in colour. Then i thought tomato puree but that would have been too thick to cook for the recommended time. So glad i read your reply.
Just followed your recipe and it was amazing! I'm definitely subscribing!
So glad you liked it Duaa!
I made this tonight and am halfway through eating a this with a bowl of basmati rice! I finally found a curry recipe that tastes good and isn't overly complicated or involved to make, Thanks! Next time I will use slightly less lemon and ginger though.
I just made this and it was so good. I made some homemade naan on the side along with white rice. It was perfect. I did add a little sugar and more chili powder for the heat. My entire family cleaned every bit
Quick question do you blend the sauce? To make it smoother?
Also are cashews recommended?
So I made this. And oh my gosh it's so delicious. Tastes just like takeout. For people who don't have access to kashmiri chili- like I don't here in Rural Pennsylvania,- here's what I did. 1/2 tsp of paprika + 1/4tsp or 1/2tsp of cayenne pepper (depending on your taste)
Here you go. Rani brand is the best. www.amazon.com/s?k=kashmiri+red+chili+powder&crid=1JOSCJ0XEI6C8&sprefix=kashmi%2Caps%2C186&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_6
I am in PA. We have some stores around here. What part are you in?
So?
Racist.
I used your substitute and it tasted great. Thank you for sharing!
Amazing!! I just made this for my family and they were licking their plates! Definitely going to be making this recipe again.
First teach them some table manners
We made this recipe yesterday and it is the best that we've ever had. I substituted the red chili for 5 parts chili powder and 1 part cayenne. Thank you for a great recipe.
We have been trying for YEARS to make a decent tikka masala. It seemed like were always close but could never nail it. Your video was AMAZING. We were missing the caramelized tomatoes! So glad to have found this. Going to def say we were in the first 100k when you hit 1M subs!
Just finished this recipe! Followed everything to the T (except the final coriander garnish). Amazing! Tastes just like the restaurants.
Wonderful, so glad you liked it Brian!
Vijaya Selvaraju yes it it like Bryani
sorry can't trust a white guy
BRIAN MCCOY yummy!
Vijaya Selvaraju is it sweet?
I MADE THIS AND IT WAS SO GENUINELY GOOD!! Thank you so much for this recipe, I can't wait to make this tikka masala more! ❤️❤️❤️
Coming her to say I made this tonight and it is soooooo good. The Indian food around here is so over priced and I can’t see myself ever needing to order out again. Side note: I substituted the heavy cream with coconut milk (the thick kind that comes in a can) and it was perfect 👌🏻
this is the umpteenth time I made it. This is the best recipe ever! I went to an Indian grocery store and got ginger paste and garlic and ginger paste a while back. I also got Kasoori Methi, adds a great flavor. I use 1 medium onion, not too big, not too small. I use crushed tomatoes, I use boneless skinless chicken thighs, they have far more flavor than boneless breasts. I use real butter and add extra because I want a rich sauce. The key is making sure you cook those tomatoes til they're fairly dry and all watery signs are gone. Using a non stick pan is ideal for this. I also do not add yogurt to the marinade anymore. It burns and leaves a bad tasting residue as well as black char in the pan. Lemon juice works just as good. Good heavy cream of course gives that lusciousness to the sauce. Sometimes you need to add your own flair to a recipe.
When you said you use chicken thighs, I knew this was going to be an excellent recipe. Thank you!!
Thighs are the way to go :D
I used overnight marinated chicken breast and it was great, tender. Just don't overcook it.
402 squad !!!!!
... im not sure whether to just agree, or to make a lude comment...
that's what she said... after she used chicken thighs...
damnit.
also... marry me... plz, lol
This was the MOST amazing I have had!!! You made me a pro! Thank you
I did this.
So delicious. Thank you for sharing your recipe 🥰
I now make this at least once a week,we moved to Algiers and Algerians can’t get enough of this fantastic Indian dish👏👏👏👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Love this recipe. Super easy and on it's own it comes out great but I use it as a fantastic base to then add my own twists. Thank you!
Ive made this several times cos it's sooo good!!! Cream in my area is so expensive so i make my own- 1/3 cup butter & 3/4 cup milk
u aint nothing but a broke boooiiii boi boi boiiiii
@@user-es6bn1we5z you never know, maybe this alternative way tastes better 😉
Try coconut milk in a can
I use Creme Fraiche - less calories
@@jeannie920 ok randy marsh
I love this recipe! Made it twice already and it always comes out lovely 💕
I just made this and it is fantastic! I didn't have heavy cream so used milk mixed with a touch of sour cream and it still came out great! Thanks for the excellent recipe!
Awesome! Looks absolutely delicious. I like your teaching style. You make it look so easy. I'm going to try this as soon as I buy the ghee (it's the last ingredient I need to stock up on).
Hi sweetie!!! I made this today playing your vid along with you. I had all ingredients ready n prepped. I had everything i needed! It came out so good!!! Hubs said it was better than the restaurant! I have a pic! Thank you for this! Im an Indian food addict! Navratan Korma, baingin Barta, Samosa Chat, samosas, Chana masala, love em all!
Just made this last night as my very first attempt at homemade Indian food. The first two things my husband said after his first bite were “Really tasty chicken” and “Please keep this recipe”! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Omg I made this and it is out of this world, I found it on tastemade and my boyfriend who is Indian said it was better than an Indian restaraunt, this is the only recipe you need trust
Me it’s perfection!
A really excellent recipe that pleased the entire family. I paired this with coconut rice and a few vegetables. Thank you very much.
This is my absolute favorite recipe! I have made it probably more than 10 times. My husband is always requesting it :) I do add some cumin seeds to the hot oil with 2 bay leaves before sautéing the onions.
I have been always infatuated with Indian Food, so where ever i lived i always found a good Indian Place to dine at, unfortunately the place where i now live doesnt have any decent Indian restaurants, long story short i decided to make my own chicken masala and came across your recipe and boy oh boy! Simple, tasty and full of flavors! Thank you from the bottom of my heart
I gotta tell you that this is the first recipe I ever tried (about a year ago) and I don't need to look elsewhere. Seriously good stuff! 5- star review from me.
You went right to the recipe without me having to forward the video, and very well explained.
*i made this, it was delicious and creamy* family loved it
Really loved this video and often go
back to it when I need to be reminded how to make it. the dish always comes out sooooooo good. Thank you!!!
You don't know how many times you have saved me with all your recipes. I LOVE YOU and keep it up.THANK YOU
Just wanted to let you know that I tried this recipe and...omg it was so good. I will definitely be putting this one in my recipe list
I am trying this for the first time and my daughter can’t stop tasting it!!
Thanks for the recipe! My family picked the bowl clean😂 I'm from Malaysia and its pretty hard to find garam masala so I had to grind some cloves, star anise and cinnamon stick since I read that it can be similar. Turned out really good!
Omg I made this tonight and it was incredible!! I’ve never had tikka masala before and I’ve been missing out. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!
Literally just finnished cooking this dish. Honestly worth all of your viewers time. Thank you for this recepie. This is delisious!!
I've tried it and let's just say me and my family were speechless it's amazing and I will definitely make it again
Im back! 4th time i made this because im crazy for Indian food but this is the only dish my husband will eat thats Indian but he has never really tried other dishes. He thinks indian food smells weird so it must taste weird. I told him its the spices hes not used to.
Anyway, i ordered more Indian spices,off Amazon. I got the Kasoori Methi leaves, fresh cardamom pods, black cumin seeds, organic turmeric, a nice size jar of ginger garlic paste, and as a special treat for me a bag of Bhel Sev which I eat handfuls out of the bag til i learn how to make Samosa Chaat, one of my favorite appetizers when i go out for Indian food. Im also going to learn how to make Naan and Navratan Korma my other favorite dish! I need to learn how to master Samosas.
Anyway this is the best chicken tikka recipe hands down on the internet. Better than the restaurants! Thank you so much for making this vid!
It’s not Indian it is Scottish
Thanks for sharing this. Is it important to be exact with the amounts or can I just wing it?
can i cook the marinade chicken inside the oven instead of fire
I love this! All explained well in under 5 minutes! Making this tonight 🙏🏻🥰
I’ve made this with my sister for 2 years now and it’s soooo good highly recommend
Did you use a teaspoon or tablespoon for the measurement of seasonings
I wish I could “like” this video 100 times. This dish never disappoints. 12/10
This looks amazing! I'm trying to get some more meal prep ideas so I may substitute the cream for yogurt and try this recipe out!
I just made this with my wife and it was absolutely amazing
What is a good substitute for cream? Im lactose intolerant so no yogurth and no crema for me
I love making this recipe, and over the years I've made it my own, sometimes I make a vegan version without butter and use coconut cream instead. add potatoes, chickpeas and cauliflower, it's delicious. Thank you so much for posting
I have just started watching your videos and I am so happy to have found them! I have attempted several dishes, and have made the Tikka Masala twice now. I would never have had the confidence to try these out if not for your simple and clear instructions. I am continuing to buy the herbs and spices and I must invest in a better grinder. Thank you so much. I look forward to discovering more dishes. The flavors of Indian cuisine are some of the best in the world, to me.
A pestle and mortar can be useful
Made this tonight and it was a hit ! Everyone was surprised that it was my first time making it 🥲😃
I have been making this recipe for years now and it is still my favorite thing ever. Thank you so much for enriching our lives, this was our gateway into loving indian food!
I swear since making this my family request it every week! I’m so happy I found this recipe, it’s the best. Thanks so much for sharing 🥰🥰🥰
I loved your butter chicken recipe, it came out amazing. Can't wait to try this! Thank you 😋🌸
Just made this and it was EPIC!!! My family inhaled it! Made loads, can't wait to eat more tomorrow night!!! Thank you!!! 😊
my friend cooked this and it was soooo freaking good!! i asked her for the recipe and here i am now🙌🏻 gotta try i asap because i‘m dreaming of it🤤 never would have thought that it‘s just soo easy
Regarding the red chili powder....do you mean cayenne, or do you recommend a different kind? Thanks!
Oh my God!! This is amazing! I randomly found this video, I replicated it and it is soooo good! Please note that I'm simply the worst cook around!! Thank you for this! Got yourself a new subscriber!! Love from Portugal!
I just made this and it was awesome!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for sharing! We made your recipe for the first time and we love it!
Made this tonight and my whole family loved it! This is my favorite thing to eat and now I know how to make it. I’m so happy!! Thank you!!
Thank you for this delicious recipe. I'm Mexican and my family loved this dish. The instructions were easy to follow with ingredients I was able to find at my local grocery store.
We Mexicans are everywhere. I've cooked it too and was incredible!
I alternate between Tex-Mex and Indian food. Every day. Sometimes I eat a hamburger. LOL That's all I ever eat.
Made this for dinner tonight and it was soooo delicious! Everyone in my family had seconds :) Had to add a bit more garam masala and salt since it tasted too tomato-ey but the final result was TASTY!
Chicken thighs are marinating, gonna make this tomorrow, and this will be the 6th times I'm thinking. You have the best recipe on the web! Nobodys can top this!
I made this for dinner and it was delicious. This is my first time making Indian food so I followed the recipe without substituting. Definitely making it again!
I have been making this recipe for years!!! It’s so good!!!

My favorite kind of people.

Question, what is GEE ?? And where do I get Garam masala seasoning from ??
I made this a couple weeks ago, normally when I make a recipe I usually always have to change it up to my taste..... I however followed the recipe exactly how it is and it seriously was the best ... it was amazing... thank you... I loved it so much that I'm taking another go at it today..
This was exceptional. Thanks so much for the joy your recipe brought to my table tonight.
We’re Mexican and are trying Indian food for the first time! I made this tonight and my familia LOVED it! Doubled it because I have a big fam. Cooked up some basmati rice and served with store-bought naan. Looking at your other recipes and waiting also for that fried tandoori chicken. Thank you very much.
Can I use curry powder instead of the herbs and spices in the recipe? If so, what quantity?
made this and it's so so so so so so good! Thank you!
I marinated the chicken for 2 days and it was absolutely delicious. I think it really intensified the flavors and brought the dish to a whole other level. I also made naan from scratch using some leftover sourdough starter I had and that was incredibly amazing as well.
If you want really intense flavor, marinate it for a month. 😂
@@Jajajajaja...1 a month😳
@@paulinebaylock5668 I mean... it might make you sick but that flavor is gonna be INTENSE!
@@Jajajajaja...1 If anyone has to marinate something for a month for it to be flavorful, they need stop cooking entirely✌🏾
@@paulinebaylock5668 I'm bring sarcastic, clearly. But you can't deny, letting chicken sit in your fridge for a month would result in... intense... flavor. Of one sort or another. Haha
We all loved this! I served it over rice with chutney and naan and it was a hit.
i made this dish for tonight dinner, my family loved it, they ate the whole pot! Thanks Vijaya for your great recipe.
Fantastic!! Thanks! I knew it was going to be a winner when I saw you mix the chicken and marinade with your hands. It's one of the most under utilized tools in the kitchen!
I tried it. It’s really yummmmy
Thank you so much 😘
Just made this and it was absolutely delicious, definitely would recommend
Can you freeze the marinated chicken? Or will it mess with the texture of the yogurt?
Made this twice already and it came out amazing. This is the best tikka masala recipe and it’s super easy. Love the marinade too.
Made this today with chicken breast. Awesome flavors. We also added two habanero peppers. It wasn't too spicy, just delicious. Thank you for the awesome recipe and clear instructions!
What is the conversion to kg for the amount of chicken mentioned?
I'm going to try this very soon. It looks delicious. I'm obsessed with Indian food and cannot understand how it isn't more popular in the USA.
Thank you so much for the wonderful and easy to follow recipe! I love your energy and content. Literally just made this and it tastes like restaurant quality!
I made this today. Very good result only i didnt have enough sauce/gravy by the time it was ready. What could i do or add to thin out my sauce to make it go further ?
Literally just made this and it turned out AMAZING!!! I can't stop eating!!!
Your very good., loved to watch you .I used coconut milk (few of my family members are lactose intolerant)and blended real tomatoes. Your dish looked much better than mine for sure. This recipe is a keeper .
I prefer this dish with oat based cream - it tastes WONDERFUL.
You're lovely Vijaya! I've been making tikka masala for years but I always love to watch your video before I make it just to get myself in the mood to cook and to get hyped up to eat it lol. Yours looks amazing.
So easy to make, and SO delicious! We LOVED it, thank you!
