Chicken Tikka

Chicken Tikka is known as the King of Kababs. It is usually made with boneless chicken and made in Tandoor. But i made this dish in a microwave oven. A very tasty dish which can be served for your guests or for your family.

Me and my daughter is a great fan of chicken dishes. This dish has become one of our favourite. I had made this dish by using 'chicken with bone'. Tasted awesome. The succulent chicken pieces are extremely tasty that with each bite the only word that came out from our mouth was "mmm....yummy..."

This dish is very easy to prepare. I am sure you will also enjoy this dish. Try it once, and this will be one of the item which you will prepare for your guests.
