Chicken Tikka is a popular dish from Indian cuisine, consisting of boneless chicken pieces marinated in yogurt and a blend of spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and paprika. The marinated chicken is traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven but can also be grilled or baked for a smoky, flavorful result. High in protein, Chicken Tikka is a nutritious choice, as it provides essential amino acids for muscle health. The use of spices not only enhances flavor but also offers potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. While relatively low in carbohydrates, it can be high in sodium depending on the marinade, and some recipes may include added oils or cream, increasing its calorie content. Pairing it with fresh, nutrient-rich sides like cucumber salad or whole-grain bread can balance its richness while maintaining its health appeal.
