About Chicken tikki

Chicken Tikka is a popular dish rooted in Indian cuisine, featuring marinated chicken chunks grilled to perfection. The marinade typically includes yogurt, lemon juice, and a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder, creating its distinctive flavor. Rich in protein and flavorful spices, Chicken Tikka can be a nutritious option when prepared traditionally. Grilling reduces added fats, making it lower in calories compared to fried alternatives. The dish is also a good source of essential nutrients like niacin and selenium from the chicken. However, some variations, especially those served with heavy sauces or excessive oil, can increase calorie and fat content. Pairing Chicken Tikka with wholesome sides like vegetables or whole-grain naan enhances its nutritional profile, while minimizing the use of cream-based accompaniments helps maintain its health benefits.
