Chicken Tikka is a flavorful dish originating from Indian cuisine, known for its aromatic spices and vibrant taste. It features boneless chunks of chicken marinated in a blend of yogurt, garlic, ginger, and a mix of traditional spices such as turmeric, cumin, and paprika. The marinated chicken is then grilled or baked, creating a smoky and slightly charred profile. Chicken Tikka is a protein-rich option that’s low in carbohydrates, making it a popular choice for lean diets. The yogurt-based marinade provides probiotics, which support gut health, and the spices offer antioxidant benefits. However, the preparation method can influence its healthiness; grilling is a lighter option compared to frying. Served with naan or rice, it can become higher in calories and refined carbs. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or a salad can balance the meal for a healthier approach.
