About Grilled chicken tikka

Grilled Chicken Tikka is a flavorful dish originating from Indian cuisine, renowned for its balance of spices and smoky aroma. Boneless chicken pieces are marinated in a mixture of yogurt and an array of spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala, which infuse the meat with bold, aromatic flavors. The chicken is then grilled to perfection, creating a tender, juicy interior with a slightly charred exterior. This dish is protein-rich and lower in fat compared to fried alternatives, especially when prepared with skinless chicken. It is a good source of essential nutrients like vitamin B6 and niacin, which support energy metabolism and nervous system health. However, sodium content can be high depending on the recipe, and the use of butter or oil during grilling may add extra calories. Pairing it with a side of fresh vegetables or whole grains enhances the nutritional profile.
